Delicious Soup Recipe - Cream of Broccoli

Anyone with Crohn's Disease, in particular if they are suffering from a recent flare up, need to be careful and avoid a lot of vegetables, thats's why this recipe (that was given to me by my friend Tess) is a perfect way to get some of that much needed nutrition without the pain :)
