Cream of Cauliflower Soup

I saw this recipe and it looked so yummy....and easy (my two favorite things). Enjoy!

3 tablespoons butter
1 small onion -- chopped
1 1/2 quarts chicken broth (or vegetable broth)
1 10 oz. package frozen cauliflower
1 1/2 cups milk
2 tablespoons flour
salt and pepper to taste

In a soup pot, melt butter and add onion. Cook till onion is translucent. Add flour and incorporate, making sure flour isn't lumpy before adding chicken broth. Add broth and bring to a boil.

Add cauliflower to broth and simmer until cauliflower is tender, about 10 minutes. Transfer cauliflower to a blender and puree (use a slotted spoon). Add back to the soup pot. Mix well and add milk, salt and pepper to taste. Heat to a very low simmer, but do not boil or soup will break.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS: A big green salad and some whole grain rolls (if you don’t mind the carbs) will do the trick. Also, calorie count is low so feel free to have a couple of bowls.
