I suppose it's a safe bet that asparagus soup is generally a pretty healthy and low-calorie item in most recipes. In fact, taking a look at epicurious.com I see a version for half as many calories though not as much nutrition. The Ellie Krieger soup we made was just 180 calories (epicurious was 93) though the Weeknight Wonders version had twice the fiber and 50% more protein. Hey, it's not just about calories after all.
As for the taste...really nice. The lemon added at the end with the yogurt really lends a lot of flavor to the dish. It's easy to make even though EK seems hell-bent on making me wash my food processor on a daily basis! Grrr..... It was really good with the whole-wheat baguette. I rate this as very good!
Your comments on the recipes are great -- but it'd be really helpful for everyone if you gave the actual recipes
