Super Easy Broccoli Soup

1. 1

   In a dutch oven or other large vessel, put the diced onion, celery ribs - I like to peel the stringy stuff off the back of each rib before mincing (the celery is optional), and the broccoli florets.

2. 2

   Add water to cover.

3. 3

   Bring water to a boil over high heat, reduce heat to medium and cook for about 30 minutes until the onion is very tender.

4. 4

   Take one packet of country gravy mix (the white kind of gravy) and put it into a smallish mixing bowl.

5. 5

   Add 1/3 - 1/2 cup water and stir until the lumps are gone and you have a very thick gravy.

6. 6

   Stir the gravy into the soup and mix well.

7. 7

   If the soup is still too runny, repeat with one more packet of country gravy mix.

8. 8

   Add garlic powder, salt, and ground black pepper as needed, a little at a time.

9. 9

   If the soup is too thick, add a little cream, half-and-half or milk.
