7 Ingredient Spicy Tomato Asparagus Soup

 Hello Beautiful People,

  It has been a cold January month here in the state of florida, with temperatures reaching below 40 degrees. I do not know about you guys but when I left New York years ago I expected to leave the cold temperatures there as well. However I am thankful for a change in weather. With this weather comes many desires of things to eat, but nothing beats a warm cup of soup.   So what better way to enjoy this weather while on the daniel fast then to have a cup of 7 Ingredient Spicy Tomato Asparagus Soup. Perfect not only for the season but also for colds and stuffy noses that are in parallel to the winter season. By the way the 7 ingredients do not include seasoning that will be used.

The recipe goes as follows: 7 Ingredient Spicy Tomato Asparagus Soup:

8. 1-Tbs Cayenne Pepper (may use less)

9. 2-Tbs Dry Basil Leaves 

10. 2-Tbs Dry Oregano

Bring to a slight boil, taste then put together cornstarch slurry and stir in to soup while at a boil. soup should be a little thick. In a small saute pan place 1tbs oil and garlic, salt and pepper.
