I have always wanted to make a cream of soup all on my own since I always try to eat healthy but most all cream soups have butter and heavy cream and even flour so to make it easier for me and others I made it my own and got a rich and delicious soup that only includes 5 ingredients! This is a soup that you don't have to worry about counting calories because I substituted the bad ingredients with the good and savory.

Steps:
- Chop the broccoli into 1 inch pieces and slice the carrot into rounds.
- Chop 1/2 of a red onion or the whole thing if its a small one.
- Heat the olive oil, in a pot big enough to hold all the vegetables, over medium heat and saute the onion first for 1 minute.
- Add the rest of the vegetables.
- Season with salt and pepper(use white pepper if you have it) and cook until the onion turns translucent. About 10 minutes.
- Add just enough chicken broth to cover the broccoli. (I like to use homemade chicken broth whenever I can.)
- Bring to a simmer and cook until the broccoli is soft and tender.
- Remove from heat and cool for a minute or 2.
- Blend the soup in batches so it doesnt explode and make a mess.
- Transfer the soup into a new clean pot and stir in the milk.
- If you want it to be thinner add more chicken stock and season with salt and pepper.
