Creamy Chicken Asparagus Soup
RECIPE BY: Seasoned Cook
Comfort food! This cream and cheese based soup blends well with the vegetables and chicken. My mother always used fresh asparagus from our garden for soups. The tender pieces of asparagus bring back soup memories from childhood. Hearty and comforting soup!

This was pretty good soup, easy to make. I made this to use up some asparagus so I didn't have a full bunch, used bouillon for the broth and, to cut down on calories, I used 2% milk for the cream and didn't use near 2 tblsp of oil. It didn't thicken up much (probably b/c I didn't use the cream) so I added some cornstarch which didn't help much. It was a good recipe, though, something I may make again.

This is a delicious soup recipe. We really enjoyed it and was easy to make. I did add garlic and nutmeg to taste, otherwise stuck with the recipe. Thanks so much for posting it, we will certainly be making this again!
