Easy Cream-Less Asparagus Soup Recipe

This Creamless Cream of Asparagus Soup Tastes Like Spring Distilled

Instead of burying the flavor of asparagus under a blanket of cream, this delicate soup is subtly enriched with a less-expected ingredient: Greek yogurt. This simple swap is less about lightening things up and more about bringing asparagus's green, vegetal quality to the fore. (Its modest calorie count is a happy coincidence.)

Delicate in texture, it's the perfect start to a Spring meal. (Or round it out with a piece of buttered toast for a light lunch or dinner.) Divvied up into small glasses, it also makes for a shockingly low-fuss hors d'oeuvre for a cocktail party or formal dinner party: make it ahead, reheat, and pour; that's it.
