Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Ingredients:
1/4 cup olive oil
2 cloves garlic
1/2 an onion
1-2 stalks celery
4-5 large carrots
1 large potato, peeled
2-3 cups broccoli florets
2-3 cups vegetable broth
2 cups almond milk
1/4 cup nutritional yeast
1 1/2 2 teaspoons sea salt
Instructions:
Roughly chop all the vegetables. Heat the olive oil over medium high heat. Add the garlic, onion, celery, carrots, and potatoes. Sautթ until softened, about 10 minutes.
Add broccoli, vegetable broth, and almond milk. Simmer until bubbly and broccoli is bright green, about 5 minutes.
Using a high speed blender, blend the soup, to a super creamy, cheesy-looking consistency. This will likely need to be done in batches. Be sure you are using a good quality, high speed blender such as a Vitamix! Be careful to Return to pot; stir in nutritional yeast and salt. Taste and adjust seasonings and serve!
Note: Nutritional yeast is what adds that great “cheesy,” salty, nutty flavor! It also adds a boost of vitamins–try it in scrambled eggs and salad dressings too!
