Rachael Ray's Creamy Asparagus and Ham Soup

I'm on a few of Rachael Ray's mailing lists, and usually just delete the email. Today, however, I noticed that there was a recipe for soup using asparagus. I just happened to have a bunch of asparagus, and had some ham in the freezer left over from Christmas (Honey Baked Ham). I decided to give it a try. It turns out that we all really enjoyed it. I didn't have any new potatoes, so I make up a cup of instant potatoes from my food storage and used that instead. You can go here to see the recipe in full, on Rachael Ray's website. The picture above is from her website as well. I forgot to take one, but our soup looked exactly the same. I even served it with a similar looking bread! It was delish!
