gourmetmomma's Note:

A quick creamy satisfying soup stuffed with lots of veggies. I was not sure whether or not my kids would eat it, but I was pleasantly surprised when one of them ate a full bowl on his own. This uses orange puree (pureed cooked carrots and sweet potatoes) and pre-pureed white beans (I puree them in bulk for speed), but those could also be added un-pureed if needed. I use half a bag of frozen broccoli and pick out the stalks (using the flourets in a different recipe), but fresh broccoli or cauliflower would work equally well. Since I have all the purees pre-made in my fridge, this was a very quick soup to put together with minimal kitchen mess. This has a distinct orange color when I make it, in part because the vegetable stock I use is very orange.
