Savory Celery Soup

My computer is still down, but I am using another computer to give you my newest recipe.  This soup is inexpensive and delicate.  It can be served as a soup course or as a meal in itself.

Savory Celery Soup

2 Cups Diced Celery
1 Cup Diced Chicken
4 Cups Chicken Broth, Stock, or Boullion
1 Cup Diced Onion
1/8 Teaspoon Nutmeg
2 Cups Skim Milk
3 Tablespoons Cornstarch
1 Teaspoon Sea Salt
2 Tablespoons Butter

In large pot, melt butter and saute onions and chicken together until onions become clear and chicken becomes opaque white.  Add celery, broth, and sea salt.  Bring to boil over high heat, reduce heat to medium and boil covered for 20 minutes.  Add cornstarch and nutmeg to milk, and stir to blend well (keep this mixture well blended to prevent lumps in the soup).  Stir in milk mixture and continue heat over medium heat for 20 minutes, stirring frequently.  Serve soup hot.
