Carrot-Dill Soup
Ingredients
  • 2
    pounds carrots, sliced (about 5 cups)
  • 1
    large onion, chopped (1 cup)
  • 1/4
    cup butter
  • 2
    49 ounce can reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 1
    cup uncooked long grain white rice
  • 1/4
    cup snipped fresh dill or sliced green onions
  • Salt and pepper
Directions

1. In a 6 to 8-quart Dutch oven cook carrots and onion in hot butter until onions are tender. Add broth and rice. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, for 45 minutes. Cool slightly. Transfer one-third of the soup at a time to a blender. Cover and blend until smooth. Stir in dill. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve immediately or cool for 30 minutes.

2. To freeze, transfer cooled soup into three 1-1/2- to 2-quart (6 to 8 cup) freezer containers. Seal, label, and freeze up to 2 months.

3. To reheat frozen soup, transfer soup to a large saucepan. Cook, covered, over medium-low heat for 15 to 20 minutes, until heated through, stirring occasionally. Makes 12 servings ( or three 4-serving portions).
