Ingredients

  • 2 Large Leeks, sliced
  • 2 Small Shallots, sliced
  • 6 Cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 Teaspoon Salt
  • ½ Teaspoon Pepper
  • 2 Pounds Asparagus (2 bunches) woody stems removed, and sliced into 1" pieces
  • 1 Cup Fresh Peas
  • 4 Cups Vegetable Broth
  • 2 Cups Non-Dairy Milk (or water)

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat the leeks, shallots, garlic, salt, and pepper over medium heat. Cook 5 minutes. Use a splash of vegetable broth to prevent sticking.
