Ingredients
-
1 garlic bulb
2 cups reduced sodium chicken broth
2 tsp olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1.25 lbs russet potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 bay leaf
2 cups low fat or fat-free buttermilk
one 10 oz box chopped green beans, thawed
1/2 cup chopped lean ham
pepper to taste
Directions
1. Roast the garlic. When cool, squeeze the pulp out of its skins and reserve.
2. In a large nonstick saucepan or Dutch oven, heat the oil. Saute the onion until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the chicken broth, the potatoes, the roasted garlic pulp and the bay leaf; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until potatoes are soft. 15-20 minutes. Discard the bay leaf, remove 1 cup of cooked potatoes with a slotted spoon and set aside.
3. Transfer the remaining soup mixture to a blender or food processor (or use an immersion blender); puree. Return to the saucepan and stir in the reserved potato chunks, the buttermilk green beans and ham; heat to serving temperature. Serve, sprinkled with the pepper.
