Slimmed-Down Broccoli and Cheese Soup


Cheddar cheese soup and frozen broccoli are heated with nonfat cream. Part of the mixture is pureed, while the rest is left chunky.



Ingredients:

  • 1 can (11 oz) condensed cheddar cheese soup
  • 1 soup can fat-free half and half
  • 1 soup can fat-free milk
  • 4 oz fat-free cream cheese
  • 2 chicken bouillon cubes
  • 16-oz frozen broccoli florets
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Method

Add all ingredients to a large pot. Simmer over medium heat, mixing well, about 10 minutes. After cream cheese has melted and bouillon cubes have dissolved, remove soup from heat. Ladle about half of the soup into a blender and blend on low speed until smooth. (Be very careful when blending hot liquids. Pulse blender a few times before blending on low.) Add mixture back into pot and mix well.

Notes:

Number of servings: 3
