1 cup chopped onion
1 carrots -- thinly sliced, 1 to 2
1 cup water
0.3 cup rice
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
2 head broccoli, about a pound
1 can cream of broccoli soup
3 cup 2% low-fat milk
paprika -- for garnish
Sauté onion, carrot slices and celery in margarine until tender. Stir in water, rice
pepper, and cream of broccoli soup. Stir until smooth. Cover and cook over low to
the size of a match stick. Separate tops into florets and steam broccoli until
tender. Save a few tops for garnish. Stir broccoli into soup and cook until
everything is tender and hot. Now you have a choice. You can place a whole batch
of soup into your blender, add the milk and blend until smooth. Or, you can put
just half the soup in your blender - add the milk and still have some whole pieces
of veggies to eat or you can just add the milk and leave all the pieces of veggies
alone and enjoy the soup like it is. Anyway, you want to reheat the soup but do
not boil. Garnish bowls of soup with paprika and broccoli florets.
