dairy free broccoli

This dairy free broccoli 'cheese' soup is so creamy and comforting and comes together in no time at all.

INGREDIENTS

1 Tbls Avocado Oil

1/2 cup Yellow Onion diced

3 cloves Garlic minced

1 cup Carrots peeled & chopped

4 Yukon Gold Potatoes large (or russet) peeled & cubed

4 cups Chicken Broth*

14.5 oz Can of Coconut Milk full fat

2 Tbls Nutritional Yeast

1.5 tsp Sea Salt

1/4 tsp Pepper

1 tsp Paprika

2 cups Fresh Broccoli Florets chopped (or frozen**)

1 Lemon

INSTRUCTIONS

Heat the avocado oil in a large dutch oven or soup pot over medium low heat

Add in the onions, carrots and garlic. Saute for 3 minutes

Then add in the cubed potatoes, nutritional yeast, sea salt, pepper, and paprika. Stir and pour in the chicken broth. Bring to a boil and reduce to a gentle boil. Cook until potatoes are fork tender (about 10-12 minutes)

Once the potatoes are tender add in 1 cup of the broccoli florets and let gently boil another 3 minutes

Turn the heat off and use immersion blender in the pot to blend the soup together

Stir in the coconut milk and remaining broccoli florets. Turn to medium low heat and cook another 5-7 minutes or until broccoli is tender (I like mine to still have a little crunch to it)

Remove from heat and taste for salt and pepper, squeeze in some fresh lemon juice for a lovely added flavor
