Broccoli and Potato Soup

By May 19, 20133 Comments

My parents used to own a sandwich store in a busy downtown office building.  We used to hang out there over the school holidays and I remember a delicious cream of broccoli soup.  Here is my attempt at a healthier version with potato and milk instead of cream…

Makes approx. 1.5L
