- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 an onion, chopped
- 1 -2 stalks celery, chopped
- 4 -5 large carrots, chopped
- 1 large potato, peeled and chopped
- 2 -3 cups broccoli florets, in large pieces for easy removal
- 2 -3 cups vegetable broth
- 2 cups almond milk (unsweetened)
- 1/4 cup nutritional yeast – optional, see notes
- 1 1/2 – 2 teaspoons sea salt
- croutons – see notes
Steps
Heat the olive oil over medium high heat. Add the mirepoix, garlic, and potatoes. Saute until softened, about 10 minutes.
Add broccoli, vegetable broth, and almond milk. Simmer until bubbly and broccoli is bright green, about 5 minutes.
Using tongs, pull out most of the broccoli pieces and set aside. Blend the soup, sans broccoli, to a suuuper creamy, cheesy-looking consistency, and then add the broccoli and just pulse a few times to mix it in. This will likely need to be done in batches. Return to pot; stir in nutritional yeast and salt. Taste and adjust and serve!
