An interesting soup from !

******************************


Oh the weather outside is frightful ... and hot soup is so delightful ... and since there's more snow to go ...

Yeah ... I'm expecting a mob outside my door any minute now. This light and healthy soup is good on it's own, or add some garlic bread or a sandwich! Watercress lends it's bright green color, vitamins, anti-oxidants, and fiber to this creamy meal.

Ingredients:

1 tbsp butter (or canola oil)
1/2 cup chopped onions
1 tbsp all purpose flour
4 cups chicken broth (or vegetable broth)
1 medium head cauliflower, chopped (about 1 1/2 lbs florets)
4 cups watercress (3 oz)
kosher salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

In a medium nonstick saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the onions and saute until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the flour and stir about 1 to 2 minutes.

Add the chicken broth and cauliflower and increase heat to medium-high.

Bring to a boil, then cover and simmer over medium-low until vegetables are tender (about 20 minutes.) Add the watercress until wilted, about 1 minute and puree with an immersion blender (I love mine, but a regular blender works too) until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
