Fennel & Asparagus Soup [vegan] - The Flexitarian

Tarragon gives this fennel & asparagus soup some wonderful flavours. A warming and nutritious light meal, perfect on a chilly spring day.

For added crunch and taste, don’t skip the almond and seed topping (even though this soup is delicious on its own).

This recipe makes use of every part of asparagus so there is no need to bother chopping off the hard stalks as they cook perfectly well in soup. If you want, you could save some of the pretty tips to use for presentation but the almond and seed topping looks fabulous on its own with just a dollop of dairy-free cream.

The UK asparagus is season is very short so make the very best of it by enjoying them as often as possible. Check my asparagus recipe selection for inspiration. From this Cream of Asparagus Soup to quiche, salad or even pizza there is quite a lot to choose from.

Fennel adds some delicious sweet anise notes to this soup. If you are looking for more inspiration on what to make with this Fennel & Apple Salad.

I hope you enjoy this fennel & asparagus soup as much as I do. If you do make it, don’t forget to tag me on Instagram!
