I'm using my blender most days for morning smoothies with fruit and yogurt. When I buy local asparagus at our farmers market, I often cook and puree it to make a delicious soup without the waste.
Here is the recipe:
Asparagus Soup

Saute onion and garlic in butter for 5 minutes.1/3 cup sweet onion, diced
2 garlic gloves, minces
