Dreamy, Creamy Asparagus Soup

The first time I had this soup I refused to believe it was dairy-free. I was at a friend's house and she was introducing me to Dr. Fuhrman's Eat to Live plan. The creamy texture and sweet, velvety notes in this dish are, well... I still don't believe it.

~ recipe by Dr. Fuhrman

Ingredients:

• 1 pound fresh asparagus, chopped
• 2 TBS Dr. Fuhrman's VegiZest (or other no-salt seasoning blend, adjusted to taste)
• 2 cups water
• 1 TBS Bragg Liquid Aminos
• 1 cup unsweetened soy, almond or hemp milk
• 1/2 cup raw cashews
• 4 pitted dates
• chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish

Directions:

1. Simmer asparagus, VegiZest, water, and aminos in a soup pot until asparagus is tender. 
2. Blend in a high-powered blender, with soy milk, cashews, and dates until smooth. 
3. Garnish with cilantro before serving (I used chives).

Serves 4. So simple. So divine. Enjoy!
