[recipe] Creamy Vegetable Soup

[Guest guest]

Here is a great soup. It makes a lot, but you can

always freeze half of it or just use it up as lunches

if you brown bag it to work. It is really easy and

very yummy, not to mention full of good for you

vegetables.

 

Creamy Vegetable Soup

 

6 cups of low-sodium vegetable broth

4 carrots, chopped

2 medium unpeeled potatoes, chopped

2 medium onions, chopped

3 cloves fresh garlic, minced

1/2 cup uncooked brown rice

8 cups coarsely chopped fresh broccoli

8 cups coarsely chopped fresh cauliflower

4 cups skim milk

1/4 tsp. pepper

 

In a large kettle, combine broth, carrots, potatoes,

onions, garlic and rice; cover and bring to a boil.

Reduce heat; simmer for 20 minutes. Add broccoli

and cauliflower; simmer for 20 minutes or until

vegetables are tender. Cool slightly. Puree half

of the mixture in a blender or food processor; return

to kettle. Add milk and pepper; mix well. Heat through

but do not boil.
