I have a carrot soup recipe you might like. It's pretty low cal and yummy. I don't know alot about diverticulitis but here's the recipe.

1/2 large sweet onion, diced
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon sugar
2 pounds carrots, pealed and sliced into rounds
6 cups water
1 Tablespoon chicken bullion granules (I use Knorr)
Salt and Pepper to taste

Saute onion in butter and sugar in soup pot until lightly browned. Add remaining ingredients to pot and boil until carrots are soft. Put through blender until pureed and return to pot. Enjoy.

Hope it helps.
