My kitchen has a food processor now and I've been meaning to use it! Tonight is the night (when two become one...) That is, when two vegetables become one. Particularly broccoli and cauliflower.
Broccoli and Cauliflower Soup
Ingredients:
4 cups veggie, chicken, or turkey broth
3 cups broccoli florets
3 cups cauliflower florets
1/2 (or a whole if you're feeling zealous) red or white onion, chopped
1 small diced potato
1/2 cup or 4 oz. cheddar cheese (or any cheese!)
1/2 cup milk
salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Bring broth, broccoli, cauliflower, onion and potato to a boil in a large saucepan. Reduce heat, cover, and cook for another 10 minutes. Remove some, most, or all of the broccoli/cauliflower pieces, (depending on how smooth you want your soup) and 1 cup of broth. Keep cooking the rest of the soup for another 10 minutes. Put cheese, milk, broccoli/cauliflower pieces, and 1 cup of broth into the blender or food processor. Puree until smooth. Mix this back into the large saucepan with remaining soup. Heat thoroughly, but do not boil or cheese will curdle. Add salt and pepper to taste.
I think I'll keep mine a little chunky by leaving some broccoli/cauliflower out of the food processor.
