Fresh asparagus soup

After months of cold wintry weather we all look for signs of spring. For me, there are two definite signs that spring is upon us. And both of these signs are for sale at the local market. First, bunches of bright yellow daffodils appear in the fresh flower section. Second, bunches of fresh green asparagus appear as well. Both are beautiful, fragrant & a sure sign that spring is here. I have two recipes here for fresh asparagus that my family loves. The salad is fresh & colorful. The soup is very low fat & soothing. Both are delicious. Enjoy!!!
