Cream of Asparagus Soup

Mom told me how to make this and it was so good!
  • 3-5 cups of asparagus cut into 1-2 in. pieces
  • 1/4 cup diced onions
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 4 TBSP butter
  • 4 TBSP flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1 can evaporated milk (add another cup of milk if you don't have this)
  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 cups chicken broth
In a large saucepan cover asparagus with water and boil 3-5 min or until crisp-tender.  Drain and set aside.  In same saucepan, saute onion & garlic in butter until tender.  Add flour, salt and pepper.  Slowly stir in chicken broth and let thicken a bit. Gradually mix in milk and let simmer about 2 min.  Add asparagus and cook until heated through.
