Simple Broccoli and Cauliflower Soup


Broccoli and cauliflower is a combination that I can’t get enough of.

I love broccoli and I love cauliflower, so it was no stretch to imagine that I would like them together.

The only question was how I would prepare them.

But it was a quit obvious decision, since I love soup as much as I love cauliflower and broccoli.

This is a nice and easy soup that the whole family will enjoy.

And it is ideal for any situation.

Make the soup chunky or smooth, depending on your preference.

You can use either a blender or an immersion stick blender to puree the vegetables with the milk and broth.

Make sure the soup has cooled slightly before doing so to avoid splashing yourself with hot liquid.

Enjoy this soup with some fresh yuca (cassava) bread or a roll.



BROCCOLI AND CAULIFLOWER SOUP


INGREDIENTS
(For four)

300 gr broccoli florets
300 gr cauliflower florets
2 dl cream
2 dl milk
250 gr cream cheese
Salt and pepper to taste


1. Cook the broccoli and cauliflower florets with a little bit of water, only enough to cover them, until they are soft.

2. Pour the water away and add the milk and cream. Cook until it starts boiling.

3. Lower the temperature and add the cream cheese, let the cheese melt and mix with the soup.

4. Add salt and pepper.

5. Either serve the soup as it is, or let it cool slightly to puree the soup and serve.


ENJOY!
