I love simple, yet flavourful recipes and this one fitted the bill perfectly! This tasted a lot like Tish's Creamless Broccoli Soup (#19655), which I've made several times. The only change I made in this recipe was to use water instead of vegetable stock. I scaled down to 1 serving, and added an extra 1/3 cup water because it seemed rather thick. The lemon juice adds a nice tartness! I had this with toasted whole wheat bread and fruit for a lovely, light lunch.
