Brussels Sprouts Soup



This is all that is left of my brussels sprouts soup. I had a package of frozen brussels sprouts and made a soup out of it. I sauteed some onions, added the sprouts, a teaspoon of dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper and a box of low sodium chicken stock to the pot. After simmering for half an hour, I mashed the softened sprouts with a potato masher. It was delicious, healthy and low carb.

I have a food processor, but it seemed easier to mash the vegetables manually.  They retained a bit of texture this way too.

Happy last day of February!
