In a pot, place your head of broccoli cut up into flowerettes. Add 3 cups of low sodium chicken broth, and 1 small onion, chopped. Bring up to a boil, and cook until broccoli is tender. Now set aside about 1/2 cup of the flowerettes, and put the remaining contents into a blender. (Be careful...hot liquids tend to spatter). Blend until smooth. Put back into pot with the reserved broccoli. Now you have a ';creamy'; soup without adding any cream.Does anyone have a good broccoli soup recipe that is not cream based?
I would just suggest a veggie soup with a tomato base - use lots of other veggies in addition to broccoli.
1 quart broth (either chicken or vegetable)
1 pound vegetable ( broccoli or whatever)
Cook the vegetables in the broth. When they are tender, remove them from the broth and use either the blender or food processor to puree them. Add small amounts of liquid as needed, if you are making a lot of soup, process in smaller batches.
Return the pureed vegetables to the pot and combine with the remaining broth. Add appropriate seasonings, such as salt and pepper and/or ginger and nutmeg for pumpkin or carrot soup. Simmer until the flavours are married.
