Steps:
- In a large saucepan, combine asparagus, chopped onion, and 1/2 cup chicken broth. Cover, and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat, and simmer uncovered until asparagus is tender, about 12 minutes. Process the mixture in a blender to puree the vegetables. Set aside.
- In the same saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Stir in the flour, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly for 2 minutes. Whisk in the remaining chicken broth, and increase the heat to medium. Cook, stirring constantly until the mixture boils. Stir in the asparagus puree and the milk.
- Put the sour cream in a small bowl, and stir in a ladleful of the hot soup. Add the sour cream mixture and the lemon juice to the soup. Stir while heating the soup to serving temperature, but don't allow it to boil. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Take one asparagus spear, hold at both ends, and bend it until it breaks.
- Use the broken spear as a guide and cut the remaining spears to approximately the same length, discarding the large ends.
- Slice asparagus spears in 1 inch lengths.
- You should have about 2 cups of asparagus pieces.
- Cook the asparagus pieces in a small amount of boiling water for 10 minutes or until tender.
- Drain well.
- While asparagus cooks, place (unmelted) butter, flour, and garlic into a blender container.
- Top with cooked asparagus, then add all remaining ingredients and blend until smooth.
- Pour into saucepan and heat gently until soup thickens.
- I like to use thinly sliced green onion tops, low-fat sour cream and a couple of croutons for a garnish.

EXTRA EASY HEALTHY CREAM OF ASPARAGUS SOUP
I am quickly becoming addicted to this easy to throw together soup. The flavor of the asparagus is carefully balanced so it doesn't take over. The potatoes add body and a creamy texture, so no real cream is necessary! We grow everything (but the sour cream) right here on the ranch so it is super economical- but still inexpensive if you need to buy the ingredients!

GUILT-FREE CREAM OF ASPARAGUS SOUP
I love this recipe because it is so easy to make and filling. If doing a low-carb diet you can eliminate the potato. I have also substituted the asparagus with broccoli and/or spinach.
