Broccoli and Potato Soup Courtesy of : Michael Smith Yield : 4 Ease of Preparation: Easy A recipe is merely words on paper; a guideline, a starting point from which to improvise. It cannot pretend to replace the practiced hand and telling glance of a watchful cook. For that reason feel free to stir your own ideas into this dish. When you cook it once, it becomes yours, so personalize it a bit. Add more of an ingredient you like or less of something you don't like. Try substituting one ingredient for another. Remember words have no flavour, you have to add your own! Ingredients | |
3 tablespoons | olive oil |
3 | onions, peeled and chopped |
2 cloves | garlic, peeled and chopped |
6 cups | chicken stock |

Directions
Place a 4 quart pot over medium-high heat and add oil.
When it's hot, add onions and sauté until they have softened.
Add garlic and continue to sauté for another minute. Add stock, grated potatoes and broccoli stems.
Season with salt and pepper and simmer until they are tender and potatoes have broken down.
