cauliflower and/or broccoli soup

this is a quick & easy soup and almost calorie free.
recipe can be halved or doubled.

two bags frozen florets steamed until soft.
mash up fine, add kosher salt, black pepper to taste, 2 TBL. butter and 1 box Kitchen Basics unsalted chicken stock. simmer about 10 minutes with lid on.

garnish the top with shaved parmesan after ladling out a bowl or cup.

my sister doesn't add butter and she uses her own homemade stock and of course, you can always use fresh vegetables. this was just a quick version i made over the weekend. it tastes as good as any i've ever had. you could always do it in a food processor but i was trying to create less mess and clean up afterwards. this is all done in the same pot....easy and delish.
