Using fat-free sour cream instead of heavy cream, you save a lot of calories, especially fat calories. Don't forget to break off the ends of the asparagus spears before preparing them. INGREDIENTS:
PREPARATION:Heat oil in a large Dutch oven. Add asparagus, onion, celery, leeks and potato, and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add broth and simmer for 20 minutes, until vegetables are softened.
Transfer soup to a blender and puree until smooth. You may need to do this in two stages. Return soup to Dutch oven, add sour cream and stir on low heat until blended.
