LOW- FAT BROCCOLI CHEESE SOUP
Steps:
- Saute onion and garlic in large skillet or dutch oven. Add broth. Add potatoes. Potatoes will take about 30min to cook through so plan accordingly. (I steamed broccoli on the side but if you're confident in broccoli cooking skills then add about half way through, with about 20min left to soup.) Let potatoes cook, until about halfway done, then add cream or milk and cheese (and broccoli). Add S+P . Let simmer on med heat for about 10 minutes, or until desired consistency. Serve with fresh cracked pepper.
Tips:
- For a smoother soup, blend it until it reaches your desired consistency. You can use an immersion blender or a regular blender.
- If you don't have any vegetable broth, you can use water instead. However, the broth will add more flavor to the soup.
- You can add other vegetables to the soup, such as chopped carrots, celery, or zucchini.
- If you like a little bit of spice, you can add a pinch of red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper to the soup.
- Serve the soup with a side of crusty bread or crackers.

This low-fat broccoli soup is a delicious and healthy way to warm up on a cold day. It's also a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables.
