A piping hot bowl of this vegan Broccoli Soup is the perfect dish for today. Why? We’re expecting a nice balmy high here in Boulder of 15 degrees, while we’re buried in snow from yesterday’s storm.
I was fortunate enough to spend yesterday, my Sunday, at a yoga class, and then hiking the gorgeous Mount Sanitas in the snow. As you can see, thus far, the new year is treating me well.
If you’re looking for a healthy soothing recipe to help kick off your new year, this is it. Simple (this gluten free soup is made of a mere 5 ingredients), warming, and easy to digest, it’s the perfectly healthy treat for cold winter days and nights. Serve it with a salad and you have a quick and easy dinner that the whole family can enjoy.

I make sub asparagus for the broccoli and add about a 1/4 cup of goat milk kefir.
Love soups when the weather starts getting blustery.

YUM! We make veggie soup almost every night in the winter. We throw any old vegetables into the pot from turnips to squashes to potatoes and add a touch of butter and sea salt. We then blend and ta da! A delicious, deceptively hearty soup that fills us up with alkaline wonderfulness :).

I am making this soup as I type. I am adding turnips to the recipe, since I thought that’s what it originally called for when I was out shopping, but I was mistaken. It will be a wonderful addition though :) We are also using homemade chicken stock instead, and will probably add some ground turkey or chicken sausage

The soup was delicious! I made it last night and am making more for lunch today.
To make it creamier like a “cream of broccoli soup” add a couple handfulls of soaked cashews…mmmmmm!!
Thanks

We tried broccoli soup for the first time a couple of months ago, delicious! I’ve made several batches since. Have you tried it with a clove of garlic and 1/2 tsp of red pepper flakes? We really like the addition of those two ingredients.
