This is what we had for dinner and it was delicious. My children loved it and asked for seconds and thirds! We loved it! It was inspired by a recipe someone else read to me, but I didn't have it written down, so here is what it was:
2 onions chopped with 2-4 TBS olive oil
12 cups chicken or vegetable broth
1 cup of celery (I think I was pretty generous, I probably used 1 1/2 cups) chopped
1 1/2 cups carrots, chopped
2 cups cauliflower, chopped
1 1/2 cups asparagus, chopped
1 fennel bulb, chopped
salt and pepper to taste
juice of one lemon (about 4-5 TBS lemon juice)
Put the onions and oil in and cook until onions are translucent. Then add the broth and other veggies. I just started with the onions and chopped everything and added it, I didn't add them all at the same time. I also added to one blenderful about 1/4 cup flour to help thicken it and then mixed it all together. When they are all soft put into the blender and blend until smooth. My blender holds 8 cups and I had to fill it 2 1/2 times.
