I love this time of year! It's usually warm enough during the day to get out the first summer clothes and at night it's still cool and fresh enough to cuddle up and enjoy a warm cup of soup. And my fresh green asparagus soup with spinach and mint is just perfect for this kind of season. It's refreshing, light and, at the same time, comforting and satisfying. Serve it with toasted, crusty bread or eat with a sandwich or wrap for lunch or dinner. When you read through the recipe you'll see that ...
