Healthier Cream of Broccoli Soup (very flavorful and creamy without needing any cream, potatoes, or flour)
(You can use many other veggies-cauliflower, asparagus, artichoke)


Cut 2 heads of broccoli, keep stems- just cut them small
Cut 2 heads of bok choy (stems into small pieces, separate leaves)


Put 1 tbl unsalted organic butter in a large hot pot on high heat

And 1-2 large cloves of fresh pressed garlic

Use wooden spoon to sizzle garlic

Add 1 quart low sodium chicken or veggie stock/broth (I use veggie broth)

Once it boils add broccoli and bok choy stems, add broccoli florets after a few minutes, add bok choy leaves last

Don't add more liquid

Everything will be in tender after boiling about 10 minutes

Transfer carefully to food processor or blender (maybe 1/2 at a time)

Season to taste (a little salt and paprika, or trader joes "everyday seasoning")

Add 14-1/3 cup 2% organic lactose free milk

Blend!
