LOW-FAT CREAM OF CELERY SOUP WITH GARLIC, CURRY & HERBS



Low-Fat Cream of Celery Soup With Garlic, Curry & Herbs image

This is my adaptation of a recipe from one of my favorite cookbooks: "Fabulous Fat Free Cooking" by Lynn Fischer. The original recipe is pretty basic and we found it to be a bit blasé (especially if you have a cold or the flu and your tastebuds aren't working for you as well as they should - I've added onion, garlic, curry and some herbs to bring in a bit more flavor. We seem to enjoy it and I hope you will too.
