Broccoli & Potato Soup

Tonight I made Broccoli & Potato soup from a recipe I found on allrecipes. It was served with buns.

Ingredients:

• 1 tbsp of olive oil
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 3 cloves of garlic, peeled and chopped
• 2 packages of chopped frozen broccoli, thawed
• 1 potato, peeled and chopped
• 4 cups of chicken broth
• 1/4 tsp of ground nutmeg
• salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

1. Heat olive oil in a large saucepan, and saute onion and garlic until tender. Mix in broccoli, potato, and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes, until vegetables are tender.
2. With a hand mixer or in a blender, puree the mixture until smooth. Return to the saucepan, and reheat. Season with nutmeg, salt, and pepper.

Changes:

• I didn't add any onions, because onions taste like they were grown with the tears of orphans.
• Instead of adding 1 potato, I added 2.
