| 1.5 lb broccoli | |
| 10 oz yellow potatoes (washed and cut into small chunks) | |
| 4 celery sticks (chopped) | |
| 1 large onion (chopped) | |
| 6 cloves garlic (chopped) | |
| 3 tablespoons olive oil | |
| 4 cups warm vegetable broth | |
| 2 cups warm water | |
| 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast | |
| 1 tablespoon salt | |
| 1/2 teaspoon pepper | |
| 1/2 cup fresh mint, chopped |
Preparation
1
Heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté for about 1 minute until translucent.
2
Add the celery and potatoes, stirring occasionally. Sauté for 3 minutes until the celery starts to soften.
3
Stir in the minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix well and cook for another minute.
4
Pour in the warm vegetable broth and water, then increase the heat to bring it to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for 5 minutes. Add the chopped broccoli and cook for another 3 minutes. Remove from heat and let the soup cool slightly.
5
Once slightly cooled, transfer the soup to a blender and blend until mostly smooth, leaving some small broccoli pieces for texture. Pour the partially blended soup back into the pot and heat over medium-high until it comes to a boil again.
6
Reduce the heat and stir in the nutritional yeast and fresh mint. Mix well, then taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
7
Serve and enjoy your creamy, hearty broccoli soup! For the best flavor, avoid over-blending—those tiny bits of broccoli add great texture and extra heartiness.
