Slow Cooker Asparagus Soup
- add review
- #20359
This crock pot asparagus soup is a great dairy-free option. It gets its creamy texture from potatoes that are slow cooked with the asparagus and then pureed.

ingredients
2 pounds fresh asparagus
5 cups chicken broth
4 green onions, chopped
2 russet potatoes, peeled and cubed
1/4 teaspoon seasoned salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
directions
Snap or cut off the tough ends of the asparagus spears. Slice the spears into 1-inch pieces and place in the crock pot.
Add the chicken broth, green onions, and cubed potatoes to the crock pot and mix gently.
Cover the crock pot and cook on low heat for 3-4 hours or until the vegetables are tender.
Transfer the soup to a blender or food processor in batches. Puree until smooth and return to the crock pot (you can also use an immersion blender to blend the soup right in the crock pot).
Turn the crock pot to high heat and add the salt and pepper. Cook for 30 minutes or until hot.
Serve the asparagus soup hot, garnished with croutons and/or sour cream or a drizzle of heavy cream.

What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
