If you live at high altitude, you may need to cook it longer, but you want the broccoli to be pretty soft. Cook the broccoli for at least 20 minutes. After adding the broccoli to the sauteed veggies add 1/2 tsp of salt, some black pepper, a dash of cayenne pepper and a dash of ground cloves. The way I make this soup which is really delicious is to use both the florets and the stems - making sure to peel the stems.

If you use only the broccoli stems, that's another story. Broccoli florets aren't very good when pureed - they end up being grainy. I can't give this recipe the way it is 5 stars - had to make too many changes. I'm giving the recipe as is a three star rating, but with the addition of what I put in, absolutely 5 and I am considering submitting it to Allrecipe I added about a teaspoon and it was perfect. I let it set for about 15 minutes to meld the flavors and realized it needed more salt. I cooked the roux for about 5 minutes to let it thicken and then mixed with the broccoli and chicken broth. I cooked this mixture for about a minute added 2 cups of milk, and 1 cup of heavy whipping cream. I also increased the amount of butter/flour for the roux and in addition to spicing the chicken broth and broccoli with lemon pepper, onion (dried), garlic powder, onion powder and about 2 tablespoons of chicken base (paste) I spiced the roux with the same measurements that were already in the broccoli base, adding about 1 tablespoon of celery salt. I did change the whole premise of the soup though, because I used 4 cans of chicken broth and 2 one pound packages of broccoli cuts. I find that I use lemon pepper in almost everything, it's an excellent spice and lends itself to almost everything, but particularly to broccoli. It was obvious to me that no one mentioned lemon pepper.

It's surprising to me that everyone is/was adding nutmeg to this soup, claiming it was missing something. I added quite a bit of seasoning in addition to what was asked for. I was a bit concerned from the onset that it didn't have enough seasoning in it.

As little as four sticks of sorbitol-containing gum can cause bloating and abdominal pain. Sorbitol is a sugar substitute that acts as a laxative, which draws water into the large intestine. Sugar-free candies: Sugar-free candies and gum often contain sorbitol. All that air gets trapped in your GI tract and causes pressure, bloating and belly expansion. However, many times if you cook these vegetables, they will deliver the same nutrients, but take up less room in your GI tract - leaving you feeling skinnier and ready to dress in your mini bikini.Ĭhewing gum: Many people don’t realize this, but chewing gum can cause bloating because it causes you to swallow air. This includes raw vegetables and legumes such as cauliflower, broccoli, peppers, onions and cabbage. Gassy foods: Certain foods create more gas in your GI tract than others. Avoiding any kind of salty snacks such as pretzels and potato chips, is essential to maintaining your bikini body. Salty, Highly-Processed Foods: Sodium causes the body to retain water, which in essence causes bloating - this leads to you feeling as big as a balloon. Now, that you know what to eat, these are foods you want to avoid:
