As a single parent I'm always looking to make things,with minimal ingredients, maximum taste...so here's something I made during my pre-op phase that was sooo tasty I froze it until I get to my pureed phase post-op (8 days to go)

Broccoli (I went with frozen because I wanted to make a lot)

1 can Cream of Celery (look for low fat/low sodium varieties if you want)

1 white or yellow onion diced

Salt n pepper

In your med or lrg saucepan saute onions in olive oil until soft, maybe 5-7 min

In the same pot, add broccoli, water and boil your broccoli until soft, maybe 10 min

Pour off water

If they are soft enough you can mash them with a fork for big broccoli tidbits or pop them in the blender for puree

If you're going to puree, add abt 1/4-1/2 cup of cream of Celery before blending. *Taste, as you're adding cream of Celery, it can be very overpowering! Otherwise add to saucepan, salt/pepper to taste and enjoy!!

Thank you for posting this.. I am on day 3 of pre-op, but I am going to make this and freeze it like you did. Plus, I know my DS would love it also. I may have to make a double batch just in case [emoji6]

will have to try this one!
