It's asparagus season right now. Low in calories, it includes vitamins C, provitamins A, vitamins E, magnesium, iron and fibre, we decided to combine it with Chlorella which is an algae belonging to what is called "superfoods", also rich in iron. It is therefore the perfect recipe if you have a small iron deficiency .

It's not just good for your body, it's also good for you, delicious, light and creamy, it's an ideal meal to treat yourself in the evening or as an appetizer if you have guests over. Don't like asparagus or seaweed? No problem, it's so velvety that the taste of the asparagus is much more discreet, as for the chlorella, it goes wonderfully together and melts in all delicacy, you won't even feel it!

And it's pretty quick to prepare. Despite a cooking time for the asparagus of 30min in velouté, in about ten minutes everything will be ready. So prepare your favorite mug or your most beautiful verrine and forward!
