Broccoli Soup for Dieters image

This is not a Broccoli Cheese Soup, or a Cream of Broccoli soup...this is just vegetables. It does have a starch in it, so if you are in a diet that eliminates starches, now you know! Low fat, and very healthy. I like broccoli, celery, and basil, so I like this! Plus it is sooo healthy!

Time 55m

Yield 8 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup diced onion
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 baking potato, peeled and diced
2/3 cup celery, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
5 cups chicken broth
1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped broccoli
1 tablespoon dried basil, whole

Steps:

  • Saute onion in oil in a Dutch oven until tender. Add potato, celery, garlic, salt and pepper, and saute for 10 minutes. Add broth, broccoli, and basil; stir well. Bring mixture to a boil; cover, reduce heat, and simmer 20 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
  • Transfer half of the broccoli mixture to a blender or food processor, and process until smooth. Repeat with the rest of the mixture. (I just use my handheld blender and puree it all!).
  • Serve in soup bowls.

I'm not a huge fan of broccoli, but this soup was surprisingly delicious! The cheese and bacon add a richness that really takes it over the top.
