Broccoli Apple Soup image

Great "what's in the fridge?" recipe, easy to prepare with just a few fresh ingredients. From the HungryMonster website. Check back soon for alterations. 11/21/05- You can use florets too, but they won't be thoroughly processed so be careful not to inhale, even though it's yummy. Enjoy!
