1 pound frozen cauliflower florets

1 cup chopped yellow onion
2 cans (14 ounce size) reduced-less sodium fat-free chicken broth

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

This is a hearty soup for a cold day (or night). I didn't peel the potatoes, but I would to get a more refined soup. I accidently included the evaporated milk before cooking, which didn't seem to hurt the soup at all. I also put this in a food processor instead of a blender and it still required 2 batches.
