Ingredients
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 pounds fresh broccoli, ends removed, stems and florets chopped
- 4 cups fat-free chicken broth or vegetable broth
- 1 cup fat-free evaporated milk
- 1/2 teaspoon hot pepper sauce or pinch cayenne pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
How to Make
-
Step 1: 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 a large pot
-
Step 2: Add broccoli and stock 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 as broccoli is cooking or it will turn gray.
-
Step 3: Remove soup from heat and blend until smooth. (Note: Be careful not to overfill blender to prevent the hot liquid from splattering.) Add evapourated milk and hot pepper sauce, and season with salt and pepper. Yields about 1 3/4 cups per serving.
