Date: Wed, 20 Mar 1996 19:34:50 -0600 (CST) From: "Mary A. Flesch" <mflesch@...> Jennette asked for soup recipes. Here's is an excellent broccoli-potato soup taken from Ladies' Home Journal: In a Dutch Oven: Saute onions, garlic, salt, pepper, and thyme in a small amount of broth until onions are tender. Add rest of broth and water; bring to boil. Add potatoes, cooking until fork tender. Meanwhile, trim ends and tough parts of broccoli stalks. Cut florets and stalks in 1" pieces. Add to potato mixture. Cook until broccoli tender, 8-10 minutes. Puree soup in blender in 2 batches; until smooth. Return to Dutch Oven; add lemon juice.

NOTE: I like my soup chunky, so I only puree half.
