Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon butter
4 leeks, chopped
¼ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon ground coriander
2 heads fresh broccoli, chopped
1 (32 ounce) carton low-sodium chicken broth
1 (12 fluid ounce) can fat-free evaporated milk

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a large pot, and cook the leeks over medium heat until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in salt, pepper, and coriander. Reserve about 1/4 cup of small broccoli florets, and cook the rest of the broccoli with the leeks until the broccoli is bright green, about 5 more minutes. Pour in the chicken stock, bring the soup to a boil, cover, then simmer until the broccoli is very tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Pour the soup into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway full. Hold down the lid of the blender with a folded kitchen towel, and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree in batches until smooth and pour into a clean pot. Alternately, you can use a stick blender and puree the soup right in the cooking pot.
  • Return the blended soup to the pot, stir in the reserved broccoli florets, and bring to a simmer over medium-low heat, stirring often. Simmer until the broccoli florets are tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat, and mix in the condensed milk. Serve hot.

LOW-CARB CREAM OF BROCCOLI SOUP



Low-Carb Cream of Broccoli Soup image

While this recipe is high in fat it works great for people on the Atkins diet. Even after eating two bowls per day I was still in ketosis. Heavy cream has no carbs which is why this works so well for folks on low-carb diets. Also fat is more filling, leading you to eat less and feel more full. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator. It's even better the second day. However, I've found if it sits longer than that the broccoli can become too strong.

Tips for Making the Best Fat-Free Cream of Broccoli Soup:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality broccoli: Fresh broccoli florets have a deep green color and are firm to the touch. Avoid broccoli that is wilted or has yellow or brown spots.
  • Use low-sodium vegetable broth: This will help keep the soup healthy and flavorful. You can also use water instead of vegetable broth, but the soup will be less flavorful.
  • Don't overcook the broccoli: Overcooked broccoli will become mushy and lose its flavor. Cook the broccoli just until it is tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Use a high-quality blender: A good blender will help you create a smooth and creamy soup. If you don't have a blender, you can use a food processor or an immersion blender.
  • Season the soup to taste: Add salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as onion powder, paprika, or cayenne pepper.

Conclusion:

Fat-free cream of broccoli soup is a delicious and healthy soup that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
