WW Cream of Broccoli Soup (2pts)
Ingredients
- 1 medium onion(s), chopped
- 1/4 tsp table salt, or to taste
- 1 medium garlic clove(s), minced
- 2 pound broccoli, tough ends removed, stems and florets chopped
- 4 cup fat-free chicken broth, or vegetable broth
- 1 cup fat-free evaporated milk
- 1/2 tsp hot pepper sauce, or to taste
- 1/4 tsp black pepper, or to taste
Directions
Put onion and garlic in a 2-quart saucepan with 1/4 cup water and simmer until onion is soft, about 10 minutes; spoon into large pot.
Add broccoli and broth to onion mixture and bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, turn down heat and simmer until broccoli is soft but still green, about 8 minutes. Do not cover pot while broccoli is cooking or it will turn gray.
Remove soup from heat and puree in pot with an immersion blender or puree in batches in a blender until smooth. (Note: Be careful not to overfill blender; the hot liquid can splatter.) Add evaporated milk and hot pepper sauce, and season with salt and pepper. Yields about 1 3/4 cups per serving.
