Hungry Girl does a "Broc Star" soup...its just Green Giant broccoli/cheese sauce with laughing cow added and then microwaved. Then you take that mixture and put it in the blender with milk. I use almond milk. It is absolutely deeelish! Pretty low cal, but the cheese is processed, which normally I avoid but in moderation its fine. And its a little high in sodium. But so easy to make!! 3 ingredients and you're done. Go to hungry-girl.com and check it out. Yum!:bigsmile:
I've tried this before and its delicious! Really like hungry girl0 -
