Instructions:

  1. Chop the garlic and onions.
  2. Saute the onions in the EVOO, adding the garlic after a couple of minutes; cook until the onions are translucent.
  3. Add the whole bag of asparagus and cover everything with the broth. Season with salt and pepper and a pinch of red pepper flakes, if using.Simmer until the asparagus is bright green and tender (if you've thawed the asparagus it will only take a couple of minutes). Turn off the heat and puree using an immersion blender.
