Tasty and very low-cal, fancy enough for guests.
| 3 | stalks broccoli (large), chopped roughly |
| 1 | large onion, diced |
| 1/4 | cup lemon juice, divided |
| 1/2 | tsp turmeric |
| 1/2 | gallon vegetable broth |
| 1 | Salt to taste |
| 1 | Lemon pepper to taste |
| 1 | cup fat free yogurt, plain |
- Heat large nonstick pan on medium heat; spray with cooking spray. Add onions, cook until translucent, stirring.
- Add broccoli and turmeric, and cook for 15 seconds, stirring constantly.
- Add one gallon vegetable broth, made with one large vegetable boullion cube.
- Bring to the boil; reduce heat and simmer until broccoli is cooked through.
- Turn off heat. Using an immersion blender, blend the soup thoroughly.
- Add half of the lemon juice, and salt and lemon pepper to taste. (I find that quite a bit of salt is needed.)
- In small bowl, mix yogurt with the rest of the lemon juice. Add a bit of salt.
- To serve, stir lemon yogurt and put a dollop on each bowl of soup. For a fancier presentation, but the yogurt in a squeeze bottle, and squeeze a spiral on the soup.
