Cream of Broccoli Soup but Lower Fat! image

I love Cream of Broccoli soup but the fat and calories do not like me. This is a lower fat but great tasting recipe to use. Keep in mind that if you use homemade chicken broth, remove the fat first ( let broth cool then skim off the fatty topping)

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (10 ounce) can low-fat chicken broth
1 1/4 cups water
2 1/4 cups broccoli, chopped include the stems
1/2-1 cup onion, diced
1/2 cup evaporated skim milk
1 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup parmesan cheese or 1/2 cup pecorino cheese, shredded
1/2 cup carrot, cut up (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine broth, water, broccoli and onion (carrots if using) and bring to a boil in a large saucepan.
  • Reduce heat to simmer for 15 minute.
  • (if you choose you can puree 1/2 or all of soup mixture at this point in a blender) I do 1/2 as I like the chunks of broccoli in my sup.
  • Slowly add evaporated milk to soup mixture or med.-low heat stirring as you add. Add pepper and cheese.
  • Let cool a few minutes then serve.
  • add additional pepper to taste.
  • this is good as a left over as well.

The soup was creamy and flavorful, but I found it to be a bit too thick. I would have liked it better if it had been a bit thinner.

This soup was just okay. I found it to be a bit bland and the broccoli was a bit overcooked. I think I would have liked it better if I had added some more spices or herbs.
