This amazing creamy soup that contains no cream, is very easy to make. The trick here is adding oats to get a creamy texture.
The broth is made using the ends of the asparagus, and then just mix all the ingredients together. It is a very healthy option for a light dinner.
You can garnish the soup with croutons, Parmesan cheese, seeds or fresh herbs.
