Fantastic!!! Brussel sprouts are my favorite veggie and I love beeing able to use them in a new way, other than side dish. This soup is light, creamy, and so tasty. I did not use any hot sauce and used black pepper instead of white. Next time I will double the recipe because it was not enough for me! Thank you Rita! This is a great recipe for the sprouts lovers!

White Pepper and Chicken Stock add a very nice compliment to the sprouts.

Very good and very easy. It has a very nice texture, too. I used fresh minced onions instead of dried and only 1 tbsp of butter. I liked the dash of hot sauce. This one's a keeper. Thanx for sharing!

This was so creamy and its the perfect amount for 2 people. My DH loves brussel sprouts and never had them in soup before, he said 10 stars. I have to agree. I served it with Crispy Oven Fish by MizzNezz #30872 and Buttermilk Roasted Potatoes by Bev #45033 and a tossed salad. Thanks Rita for posting its a keeper.
