Directions
Step 1
Begin by preparing the vegetables: chop the onion and leek, slice the celery, and mince the garlic.
Step 2
In a large pot, use the olive oil spray to lightly coat the bottom, and set it over medium heat.
Step 3
Add the onion, leek, celery, and garlic to the pot. Sauté these ingredients for about 5 minutes until they are softened, but not browned.
Step 4
Add the broccoli florets to the pot, stirring to combine with the other vegetables.
Step 5
Pour in the low-sodium vegetable stock. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for 20 minutes or until the broccoli is tender.
Step 6
Using an immersion blender, blend the mixture in the pot until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup to a blender in batches and blend until smooth, then return to the pot.
Step 7
Crumble the Stilton cheese into the soup and stir until melted and well-incorporated.
Step 8
Pour in the skimmed milk and stir until the soup is heated through. Be careful not to boil.
Step 9
Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Step 10
Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.
