Asparagus Soup

This creamy asparagus soup is amazingly simple. Well, you need a Vitamix–so it’s not that simple. But, if you have a Vitamix it is super easy. With four ingredients (asparagus, cashews, avocado and garlic) and seasonings you can have a creamy asparagus soup in less than 15 minutes. If you have a regular blender or a cuisinart, skip the cashews and it will still be creamy and delicious.

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Cut asparagus into 3 inch pieces by cutting the whole bunch of asparagus twice.
