Asparagus, Broccoli and Roasted Red Pepper Soup

Picture
This soup is very clean tasting with a nice simple broth and the tops of the broccoli crowns and asparagus tips added in. The addition of the roasted red pepper really added nice flavor to this soup.  You are going to be so surprised how delicious this healthy soup is. The purple onion brings just the right amount of spice.

Ingredients:
1 purple onion chopped
3-4 celery stalks, chopped
1 bunch asparagus spears
1-2 heads of broccoli  chopped
3 red peppers
Salt and pepper to taste
5 cups distilled water

Break your asparagus by hand, they will naturally break in the right spot. Save your asparagus tips/tops and broccoli crowns and set aside. We will add them in at the last step.
In soup pot saute onion and celery with light drizzle olive oil for 5 minutes stirring a few times. Add broccoli and asparagus tops and stir in a few minutes. Add vegetarian broth and red peppers, let simmer for 20 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy!

Roasting the peppers: (optional) can chop red pepper directly in to soup if you would like to skip the roasting step
Pre-heat oven to 400. In baking sheet or sheet pan place sliced and trimmed red peppers.  Roast in oven until peppers are charred, collapsed and soft. for 20minutes. Add to soup
Making the stock (optional) :
In large pot add bottom part of asparagus spears, broccoli stems, tops of red peppers, celery heart and cover with water. Cook 20-30 minutes, strain and set aside. Add to soup as your custom broth.
