Eating high-response cost,high-yield soups helps you feel satisfied and makes it easier to get the nutrients you require while,at the same time,consuming fewer calories.If you are having trouble controlling your urge to splurge at meals,a light soup like this one will improve your chances of losing weight.To prevent the soup from turning brown when you puree it,be sure not to brown the vegetables.
Ingredients for 6 servings are ; (1) 2 teaspoons canola oil (2) 1 medium onion,chopped,or 3/4 cup-frozen chopped onion (3) 2 ribs celery,chopped (4) 1 small head cauliflower,cut into florets,or 4 cups frozen cauliflower florets,thawed (5) 1 medium baking potato (about 12 ounces),peeled and diced (6) 1 teaspoon rubbed sage (7) 1 teaspoon dried thyme (8) 1 teaspoon dry mustard (9) 1 teaspoon celery seed (10) 4 cups no-salt,fat-free vegetable broth (11) 1/2 teaspoon salt (12) 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper (13) 3 tablespoons golden raisins,for garnish
1. Heat the oil in a large saucepan set over low heat.Add the onion and celery and cook,stirring often,until golden,about 5 minutes.If the onion begins to brown,lower heat.
