Cooking tip: Did you know that you can easily portion out and freeze soup to save for a busy night down the road? When ready to reheat, either microwave or heat up in a pot over the stove with a splash of water.

Ingredients:

  • 4 each Leeks
  • 1/2 pound Asparagus
  • 3 14.5 ounces cans Chicken Broth, Bouillon or Consomme
  • 3 tablespoons Vegetable Oil
  • 1 large Summer Squash
  • 14 1/2 fluid ounces Tap Water
  • 1/4 cup Parsley
  • 4 ounces Snowpeas (Pea Pod)
  • 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Lemon Peel

Directions:

  1. Heat oil in a large soup pot over medium-high heat.
  2. Add leeks and cook 2 minutes, until softened, stirring occasionally. Add asparagus and cook 2 minutes, until color brightens.
  3. Add squash and pea pods and cook 2 minutes, or until squash begins to soften. Add salt, pepper, broth and water; bring to a boil.
  4. Reduce heat to low and simmer 5 minutes, until vegetables are tender. Just before serving, stir in parsley and lemon zest.
