Carrot And Dill Soup – We Love God!

[It] will [not] be possible to transfer from one region to another. No matter how endless the ages, no matter how heartfelt the cries, no matter how intense the suffering, your travel plans are limited to your present abode. Those who find themselves in the lower gloomy regions shall never enter the gates that lead to endless light and ecstasy. They will discover that the beautiful words spoken in their eulogy bear no resemblance to the reality that now confronts them. If only their friends could see them now!

INSTRUCTIONS

I found "Lee Bailey's Soup Meals" in my local library. There's  several
very nice soup recipes that are very easily converted to  low-fat.
Here's one of them--Carrot & Dill Soup. The original recipe  calls for
sautÃ©ing vegetables in 2 Tbsp. butter; nonstick vegetable  spray can
be used to keep this recipe virtually fat-free. I used 1  Tbsp. olive
oil which for 6 servings would give you about 2.5 Gms.  fat.  Spray pan
or heat oil and sautÃ© onion until light golden and just  beginning to
brown.  Scrape sautÃ©ed onion into blender, deglaze pan with a little
of the  chicken stock, and add this to the onion. Add carrots and
puree.  Scoop out potato pulp and add along with white pepper, and
lemon  juice. Puree until thoroughly mixed and very fine.  Pour mixture
into saucepan, then add dill and stock. Simmer over very  low heat for
about 15 minutes.  Soup may be thinned with additional stock. Correct
seasoning, and  serve warm with a dollop of sour cream, or yogurt.
