Nutritional values

One portion of this nutritious soup contains one third of your daily fiber requirement and 300% of your daily vitamin A requirement.

Do you like greens in your soup? Then replace the white asparagus with green asparagus: it tastes a little stronger and cooks faster when peeled.
