I have not tried this recipe. I got this recipe from Ossg Recipes. This recipe is from The High Fiber Cookbook. A serving is 1 cup. Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups fine chopped cooked vegetables (use one or a combination of asparagus, broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, celery, mushrooms, onions) |
3 1/2 cups fat-free chicken broth |
1/4 cup all-purpose flour |
2 tablespoons melted margarine |
salt |
1 dash pepper (optional) |
Directions:
1. Cook vegetables, drain well and chop into small pieces. Use within 30 minutes or refrigerate them.
2. Place broth in a saucepan and bring to a simmer over moderate heat.
3. Place flour, dry milk and melted margarine in a small bowl and mix well to form coarse crumbs. Stir the flour mixture into the simmering broth using a wire whip.
4. Or add the flour mixture to cold broth, cook and stir over moderate heat to form a sauce. Cook and stir over moderate heat until mixture is smooth and the starchy taste is gone.
5. Add the vegetables to the sauce and reheat to serving temperature. Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper. (Nutritive values are based on the use of commercial broth with no added salt.) Serve hot.
6. Low-sodium diets: Use fresh or frozen vegetables cooked without salt, low-sodium broth and salt-free margarine. Do not add salt.
7. Suggestions: Experiment with herbs or spices - maybe try 1/4 tsp to start.
