Spring Asparagus Soup

Rich and creamy...

1 medium		onion, chopped
2 cloves		garlic, minced
2 Tbs		reduced-calorie butter
1/3 cup		flour
2 cups		fat-free chicken broth
1 cup		fat-free milk
1½ cups		finely chopped asparagus
½ tsp		salt
¼ tsp		freshly ground black pepper

Spray a nonstick saucepan with nonstick spray and set over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until translucent. Add the butter. When melted, add the flour and stir until the mixture forms a ball. Remove from heat and add the broth a little at a time, whisking it into the flour completely before adding more. Return the pan to heat and stir in the milk, then add the asparagus, salt and pepper. Reduce the heat and simmer until the asparagus is tender, about 20 minutes.
