Cheesy Broccoli Soup

• 2 onions, chopped
• 3 cups broccoli, chopped (stems and all)
• 3 garlic cloves, crushed
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 quart chicken broth
• 1 cup low-fat cheddar cheese, shredded
• 1 cup skim milk

1. In a large soup pot, saute onions and garlic until wilted.
2. Add chopped broccoli and continue cooking.
3. Pour broth over the top and cook until broccoli is very tender, about 30 minutes.
4. In batches, process soup through a food processor or blender until almost smooth (some chunks are nice).
5. Add milk and let continue cooking another 20 minutes, but be careful not to let boil or the soup will separate.
6. When nice and thick, remove from heat and serve in individual bowls. Top each bowl with 1/4-cup cheddar cheese and serve with a great, big salad and whole grain bread. Makes a great dinner!
