"I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes. Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world. You’re doing things you’ve never done before, and more importantly, you’re doing something." ~Neil Gaiman
I shared this quote in my newsletter this week, and I think it’s going to be my guide for 2017. Heck, I might even frame it for my office! I tend to shy away from things if I don’t think I can do them well, and this quote reminds me to take more risks in the year to come. My goal list tends to be pretty lofty at the start of each year, but I’m also not too hard on myself if I only complete a portion of them, which is usually the case. Seeing as it’s the new year, I thought it might be fun to update you on what we’ve been up to so far and what some of our goals are.
As you may have seen, we launched the Android version of the Oh She Glows Recipe App Monday after months of preparation. We can’t thank you enough for your support, excitement, and kind words!
On Monday we sent out the latest issue (#11) of In the Glow, sharing healthy recipe ideas for the new year, as well as exciting OSG news tidbits. Starting (and growing) a newsletter was one of our goals for 2016. We sent out our first one on February 9, 2016, followed by 9 more issues over the course of the year. We’re now over 40,000 subscribers and growing! THANK YOU. I’m hoping to send out a survey at some point this year so you can let me know what you want to see more (or less) of.
You may have seen that we’re looking to expand our team. Right now our small-but-fierce team consists of myself, Eric, Shari (Content Editor), and Nicole (Recipe Tester). This year we’d like to hire a Video Content Creator (details on the position here), and potentially, a Social Media Specialist and RD or Holistic Nutritionist intern. (As you may know, the latter two were hiring goals for 2016, but ones that didn’t end up happening due to how busy things were. Thank you to everyone who applied for those positions, and rest assured we haven’t forgotten!)
On the personal side of things, I’m hoping to make progress with my anxiety this year. It’s a never-ending struggle, and tends to be on my goal list each year, but I’m going to keep on with it. I’ve found that postpartum hormones have been making my anxiety a bit worse than usual, and I’m going to take some active steps in 2017 to, hopefully, improve how I feel.
Let’s see, what else? I’ve been hard at work developing recipes for the app. Last week I added 3 new recipes—Brownie Breakfast Bake, Easy Nut-Free Taco Salad, and Dill Pickle Smoothie—to the app. We launched the new Get Glowing Bundle last week, too, which contains 5 “reset button” recipes to kick off the new year. The app bundle is 99 cents, and for the month of January all of our revenue from this bundle will be donated to Blessings in a Backpack Canada. This charity ensures children in need receive backpacks filled with food every Friday throughout the school year, so they can return to class on Monday well fed and ready to learn. It’s awesome to be working with BIB again!
On the blog front, I’m starting to bookmark old recipes that are in desperate need of some updating—such as my Broccoli and Cheese Soup. The original recipe was posted back in 2011, and I took one look at the recipe and its photos and knew I had to breathe some life back into it with a fresh new approach. Last year I also started adding metric conversions to my recipes, and I’ll continue to share these calculations for each new recipe in the future. It’s tedious (mainly because I weigh each solid ingredient), but I love hearing from those of you in the UK and elsewhere who find it incredibly helpful! I want you to have similar results, ya know?! If there are any other old blog recipes that you’d like to see revamped in 2017, please drop me a comment below. I’d love to hear your ideas!
There are some other goals on our radar this year, but this feels long-winded enough for now.
Cheers to making mistakes, trying new things, and learning as we go in 2017!
Vegan Broccoli and Cheese Soup
Yield
8 cups (2 litres)
Prep time
Cook time
Total time
Like a big, cozy sweater, this soothing soup will help you get through the long winter. It combines my love for broccoli and cheese sauce, while doing without the dairy-based cream or cheese. This is a bit of a fussy soup (think weekend, not weeknight) as it involves a few homemade components (cheese sauce, soup, and homemade croutons), so you’ll need an hour start to finish. If you can make the cheese sauce the day before, that’ll help streamline things!
This soup is adapted from my 2011 version. The cheese sauce is lightly adapted from my cheese sauce in Oh She Glows Every Day.
Ingredients
For the cheese sauce:
- 1 1/4 cups (190 g) diced peeled yellow or red potatoes*
- Heaping 1/3 cup (55 g) diced peeled carrots*
- 2 tablespoons (6 g) nutritional yeast
- 2 tablespoons (30 mL) refined coconut or grapeseed oil**
- 2 1/2 tablespoons (37.5 mL) water
- 1 1/2 teaspoons (7.5 mL) fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 medium (4 g) garlic clove
- 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 mL) white wine vinegar
For the soup:
- 1 tablespoon (15 mL) extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 medium (350 g) onion, diced (2 heaping cups)
- 3 medium (13 g) garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup (120 g) chopped celery
- 5 to 6 cups (350 g) chopped broccoli florets
- 1 1/2 cups (225 g) chopped Yukon Gold potatoes (about 2 medium)
- 3 cups (750 mL) low-sodium vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons (6 g) nutritional yeast
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
- 1 1/2 teaspoons (7.5 mL) fresh lemon juice, or to taste
- Fine sea salt, to taste (I use 1/2 teaspoon)
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 1 1/2 teaspoons to 3 teaspoons (7.5 to 15 mL) chickpea miso, to taste***
For topping:
- Pan-Fried Garlic Croutons (use gluten-free bread if necessary)****
- Smoked or sweet paprika
- Fresh minced parsley
Directions
- For the cheese sauce: Place the potatoes and carrots in a medium pot and add water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce the heat to medium, and simmer uncovered for 10 to 15 minutes, until fork-tender. Drain.
- While the potatoes and carrots are simmering, add the nutritional yeast, oil, water, lemon juice, salt, garlic, and vinegar into a high-speed blender and set aside.
- Chop the onions, garlic, celery, broccoli, and potatoes for the soup and set aside.
- When the simmering potatoes and carrots are fork-tender, drain them and add to the blender. Blend the cheese sauce until smooth, then transfer to a bowl.
- For the soup: In a large pot, sauté the oil, onion, and garlic over medium heat, stirring frequently. Cook for about 3 to 5 minutes.
- To the pot, add the celery, broccoli, and potatoes and sauté for a few minutes more. Now, add the broth, nutritional yeast, cayenne pepper, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Cover and simmer over medium heat for about 13 to 15 minutes, until the potatoes are fork-tender. Turn off the heat and let the soup sit for a few minutes. Add the chickpea miso.
- Carefully transfer the soup into a blender (you might have to do this in two batches). Blend until smooth and place back into the pot.
- Set aside 1/4 cup (60 mL) of cheese sauce for garnish. Add the rest of the cheese sauce into the soup and stir to combine. Adjust seasonings to taste if desired.
- Ladle the soup into bowls and swirl in a tablespoon of the reserved cheese sauce into each bowl. Top with Pan-Fried Garlic Croutons, paprika, and parsley, if desired.
Tip:
* To cut down on cooking time, be sure to dice the potatoes and carrots very small.
** Refined coconut oil doesn’t have a coconut flavour, which is why I love it in the cheese sauce. Grapeseed oil also has a neutral flavour, but if you don’t have either you can probably get away with a light-tasting olive oil.
*** I love chickpea miso, it’s light in flavour and often soy-free (be sure to check the label, though). If you can’t find chickpea miso, any light or white miso should do the trick! I like a full 3 teaspoons of chickpea miso in this soup, but depending on the flavour of your miso you might prefer a bit less.
**** Instead of bread-based croutons, you can top this soup with my Roasted Chickpea Croutons.

Hey Angela,
This seems delicious ! I’ve made your almond butter chocolate chunks cookies twice over the holidays and I currently have a batch of sweet potato lentil stew simmering ! As I’m getting more comfortable with vegan cooking and baking, I start to explore new blogs but I keep coming back to yours because I feel particularly attached to it since it got me started as a new vegan. As far as my resolutions go, I’ve started the online plant-based cooking course from Rouxbe and I’m hoping to be more consistent with my meditation practice with headspace’s help. As I read how you mention wanting to get your anxiety a bit more in check, I couldn’t help but think that the headspace app would be perfect for you ! You should really check it out, it does wonderful things for me ! Best of luck,
Elisabeth
Thank you so much for the warm words and advice, Elisabeth! I think I’ve heard of headspace before, I’ll definitely have to look into it.
Made this for dinner and it was excellent! That cheese sauce sounded a bit too healthy for me, but did not disappoint in its richness!! So creamy & lush! I plugged all the ingredients into MyFitnessPal and for 8 serves it is 152 cals, 5.5 fat, 22 carb, 5 protein! This includes cheese sauce, but not croutons. Will keep this recipe and may even make the cheese sauce for another use i.e. Vegan Nachos!!
Hey Molly, I’m so pleased you enjoyed the recipe! I love that bit of richness the cheese sauce adds, too. I’d love to hear what you think of it on the nachos!
I love to try different types of soups. This is really easy to make and healthy. I would definitely try this and would prefer to add at least once in a weak to my meal.
Hi Angela,
You might want to look into adding a niacin supplement to help you will your anxiety. If you do some research you will find that this can be VERY beneficial in helping stress and anxiety, it will calm you within about 20 minutes of taking it.
Hope this will help you.
Keep the recipes coming….. :)
Thanks for the suggestion, Tara!
Hi Angela,
I love your recipes and so does my family (although we are not vegetarians). I was wondering..our blender doesn’t work. Would a food processor work for the cheese sauce or should I use a hand held blender instead? I’ve been meaning to invest in a Vitamix but they’re sooo expensive and I’d hate to try the recipe and have it flop (it would be a terrible waste of ingredients). Thanks for your help!
Hey Rosemary, I haven’t tried this cheese sauce using a food processor or immersion blender yet, but I will try to remember to test these out in the future. My guess is that it might work, but could turn out a bit grainer in texture. If you give it a go, please report back! I hope you enjoy the soup, however you end up making it.
How long would you say this lasts in the fridge? Does it reheat well? Can the reserved cheese sauce for swirling just be added at the beginning of the week? Thanks!
Hi Emily, I’d say this soup lasts well in the fridge, sealed in an airtight container, for up to 4 to 5 days. And yes, it reheats wonderfully! As to the cheese sauce, it should last in the fridge for 4 to 5 days as well. I hope this helps!
Wow!! This looks absolutely amazing!
I also wanted to say that I love the quote you shared and how it relates to you. I, too, do not take chances, or risks, because I don’t think I will succeed. However, I have tried to make this new year different and, so far, I have gone back to being 100% vegan and started a blog of my own.
Thanks for the inspiration, motivation, and all the delicious recipes :)
Hi Tiffany, I just love that quote, and I’m so happy it speaks to you, too! I’m wishing you all the best in 2017. :)
This looks absolutely delicious, I’m going to make it tonight with the broccoli I have! I also love your goals for the new year, it reminds me of a quote I read recently that’s really resonating with me … “Fortune favors the bold”. Hope 2017 is good to you!
Oh, I love that quote! So inspiring. I hope you enjoy the soup tonight, Sylvie!
I love all of your recipes, but the ones I make ALL THE TIME (okay, probably too much! I can not help myself they are so good!) are the butternut squash/cashew blend mac & cheeze and the protein bars. I would love to see a refresh on these ones. I just can’t get enough (especially since Costco & BJ’s sells butternut squash in ready to make frozen cubes – so quick and easy!)!
Winner Winner! My husband made this last night for me. The perfect treat after a looong work day AND his first attempt at a vegan recipe! Needless to say we both LOVED the soup and started planning every possible way we could use the cheese sauce…a dead on replacement for nacho cheese. My husband is not vegan and always struggles with not knowing what to make for me, so thanks for the help and easy to follow instructions. He proudly shared photos of the dish with fam and friends before digging in! :)
I really love that recipe, very comforting and smells delicious. The cheezy sauce reminds me of a nachos vegan sauce I saw on internet, really good with sriracha sauce in it. But maybe not in this soup :)
I’m so happy to hear you love it, Amelie!
Yummy!<3

This looks delicious, one of my favourite soups for sure. I’ll definitely be giving this a try!
I hope you enjoy the recipe, Cee!
Tried this recipe tonight from the app. I didn’t realize that the website had so many more pictures of what it’s supposed to look like, LOL! As I’m sure you can guess, mine didn’t look quite right. My issue was with the cheese sauce. The potatoes made the water so thick that I couldn’t really drain it, so I think my consistency was way off on the cheese sauce (it was more white than yellow). I also forgot to put in the miso, which I actually have no idea where to buy, but I was going to try a substitute that I found online.
When all was said and done, it actually still turned out really well and I got an enthusiastic, “That’s good soup!” from my hubby, so that really says it all.
I was thinking, it might be nice if the app had the link to the web recipe so that if people run into issues or are unsure of something, they can easily read all the details with pictures and reviews or tips.
Thank you for a lovely recipe.
Thanks for the feedback, Pam! :) We really appreciate it.
Thank you for the metric conversions! I always feel lost with the cups and spoons. Grams and milliliter are more familiar measurements for this German.
Can I leave out the miso or is this critical to the flavor? This isn’t something I typically use or can easily find. Anyone know?
Hi Jamie, I find the miso really makes the soup flavours pop and come together. It also lends a nice umami flavour. I found it was pretty tasty before adding it, but once I added it the angels started to sing, hah. ;) That said, it’s still pretty nice without it too, just not maybe a “home run” for me. I hope this helps!
Thanks for the response! I will hunt more for it!
This soup looks amazing, I can’t wait to try it!!! What store do you buy your chickpea miso from? I will have to go on a hunt for it next time I am at the Superstore.
Hey Amanda, I buy it from Organic Garage in Oakville. Hope this helps! I’d be curious to know if Superstore carries any. :)
I’m SO HAPPY you’re adding metrics!! I’m in the US but have found that volume measurements can vary so much — especially things like ‘2 medium carrots’ make it very hard to estimate. Thank you!
This was awesome. Didn’t have an miso, so just left that out. Definitely worth the effort!
Hi Angela: On a non food note…when you first started out blogging, where did you go to learn how to do this? I want to start a blog about my weight loss journey and a plant based whole grain diet. I want to thank you for all your hard work and inspiring recipes, my mom and I have really been enjoying your amazing recipes! We both have your cookbooks ?
Thank you in advance for your help!
Hi Julie, It’s lovely to hear from you, and I’m thrilled to hear you and your mother have been enjoying my cookbooks and recipes. :) I’m so sorry it’s taken me a while to get back to you — this is a tough question to answer! When I first started blogging, I never predicted that Oh She Glows would grow in the way it has; in all honesty, I really just learned as I went, especially in those early days! I started by creating a blog on a free platform like WordPress, and then I ended up buying my domain name once I knew I wanted to stick with it. Looking back, I would try to secure your domain name before creating your blog just to make sure it’s available. ;) There are many great tutorials online on how to start and maintain a blog too (unfortunately, I don’t have anything at the moment to direct you too). I wish you all the best with starting your blog!
How often does your newsletter come out?
Hi Julie, Though we don’t have a set publishing schedule, as sometimes we release special editions around big events, last year we had 10 issues of In the Glow go out. We’re hoping to have as many, if not more, issues released in 2017!
Incredible! Best broccoli soup I’ve eaten! Def worth the prep. Thank you!
That’s so great to hear, Megan! I’m glad you enjoyed this one. :)
Mhhh, how delicious does this soup look?! Broccoli and cheese is such a combo made in heaven. And I love the swirly shot of the two coming together. So beautiful!
Right?! I can’t get enough of that broccoli + cheese combo. :) If you try the soup, I hope you love it!
This is perfect for the wintertime. I’m sure this is something I can cook up for my wife because I’m not very good at cooking. Thanks!
Broccoli are so good!!
I have written a book review for The Oh She Glows Cookbook for my customers and would like to know if I can use photos of Angela, the cover & at least one recipe picture in my review. I LOVE this cookbook and only have amazing things to say about it. I am a nutritionist for a Cold-Pressed juice company in Canada. It’s been challenging finding contact information so I’m sending my request this way.
Also if Angela every makes it to Vancouver Island would love to set up a book signing or talk or something. I’m sure she’s busy, busy, busy but nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Thank-you in advance,
Kathi
Thanks for sharing. I love broccoli too and I will try this recipe.
How well does this recipe freeze? Thanks :)
Hi Annette, I haven’t tried freezing the soup yet myself, but I’ve been wondering the same thing! I find potato can hit and miss when it comes to freezing and thawing. For e.g., I tried freezing and thawing my cheese sauce (which has potato in it) and I noticed the texture changed a bit and it wasn’t as smooth and creamy. In light of that, I’m not 100% sure how the soup would be impacted…if you try it out please let us know! :)
Thank you for the feedback. I won’t be needing to freeze it….by tomorrow it will all be gone. Such a great soup.
Holy cow! I’m in love with this cheese sauce! I want to dip in all the crunchy things ?
It’s got a fantastic, creamy texture (like velveeta – without the guilt!) and flavor and I love that it’s based on veggies instead of nuts – those can get too heavy and rich. I’m not even vegan, but I plan on making this one often. Oh and the soup overall is great, too. Thanks so much for the inspiration and great recipes!
Thanks for the glowing review, Catherine! I agree, it’s so tempting to use this cheese sauce with ALL the things. ;)
I like broccoli so I need to try this. This will be my favorite for sure.
– Gustavo Woltmann
I made this tonight exactly as per the recipe. Although it was filling and delicious, I would say the “cheese sauce” didn’t look or taste like cheese sauce and was like yellow-hued mashed potatoes. Since it didn’t actually look like swirly cheese when swirled into the broccoli soup, I think next time I wouldn’t spend the time making the cheese sauce- I would just add those ingredients in to the broccoli part. (Other than the carrots, the ingredients overlap anyway). That would save time and get the same result.
Eating this soup was the best thing that happened to me today!
It’s so super delicious, so warming up, so smooth… simply so good! I played with your original recipe a bit, and added apple cider vinegar instead of white wine vinegar for the sauce, swapped potatoes for butternut squash (only in the soup), doubled the amount of lemon juice and tripled the nutritional yeast. I also added 1/2 tsp. of hot paprika, and only a tiny pinch of cayenne pepper. In the end, I skipped the croutons. I just love to melt in the smoothness and delicate texture of the dish. Wow, it’s been like an hour since I had this miraculous soup, and I still feel so incredibly good. What can I say, I think that was just what I needed today.
Thank you, Angela, for putting so much heart and work into what you’re doing here, which is – in my opinion – teaching others how to love yourself. I feel you contributed tons to my taking care of myself, listening to my body, nourishing and loving myself more!
The android app is great, I totally love it! One remark: shouldn’t there be an option to tap (with a black heart, for example) those recipes you don’t like? Would involve much less tapping! ;)
Wish you a great 2017! <3
Thank you so much for this lovely comment, Kamila! I’m beyond thrilled to hear you loved the recipe and are enjoying the app; thanks for taking the time to let me know. :) Happy 2017 to you, too!
Hi Angela! I love this soup! Made a double batch of it last week.. delicious. We double or triple (or even quadruple!) most recipes so we can freeze and enjoy later. Having good quality containers for freezing in our house is crucial! We currently use the Anchor brand, but find the lids constantly crack and it’s getting frustrating! I was wondering what brand of containers you use for freezing? Thanks so much for being an inspiration. I use your cookbooks, app or blog daily.
Hey Sydney, I’m so happy you love this soup!! Thank you for letting me know. As for glass containers, I use Glasslock brand.
Holy crap! 1) this is the most amazing soup ever 2) THE CHEESE SAUCE!!!! it almost didn’t make it into my soup it was so delicious we were eating it straight out of the blender! Would be so good as is or with some added spices as a queso type cheese!
Hi Angela! I’m absolutely love your recipes and made this one last night. It was really good (even my 8 year old approved – which is always a win) unfortunately I think I overdid it with the garlic – the cloves were too big, didn’t cook enough or something. Anyway, my question, is there anything that you can suggest I do to the leftover soup to cut the garlic flavour a little? Thanks!
Hey Kate, Aw, I’m sorry to hear that about the garlic (so easy to do!), but glad it was a hit nonetheless. You might be able to cut the soup down with some veggie broth (this will obviously thin the soup though) and then re-adjust the salt/spices to taste. Hope this helps!
Hello,
Just wondering where I would find chickpea miso. I went to Whole Foods in Oakville the other day and could not find it. Any suggestions?
Thanks
Hey Fiona, I buy it from Organic Garage in Oakville. Hope this helps!
Wow, what a delicious soup! I was skeptical that all of those ingredients would actually taste like cheese, but it did and then some. The 5 year old inhaled it too. Very, very yummy.
I’m thrilled you enjoyed it, Yvette!
Angela – you are an inspiration! Have both your cookbooks and have given, and recommended, many as gifts. Love that you have pictures and a chatty explanation with each recipe. Every single one has turned out perfectly!
My most recent success is your cheese and broccoli soup – my carnivore husband raved over it. And no wonder….it was fabulous.
Keep up your great work. A loyal fan.
Thanks so much for the warm words, Valerie! I’m thrilled to hear you’re enjoying the cookbooks, and that this recipe was a success for you, too. :)
Hi
I am a huge fan of your cookbooks. After receiving one for Christmas 2 years ago, I thought,”I am not vegan what am I going to do with this??” Since then I have become much more mindful of my meat consumption and I can’t put this book down! I have not tried this recipe, but one day I made your Golden French Lentil Stew as well as your 6 Vegetable and “Cheese” Soup as my Sunday meal prep. On a whim I decided to mix the 2 and it is AMAZING. I love getting knowing I’m getting some broccoli in my diet with the protein boost from those lentils. I highly recommended it!! Keep the amazing recipes coming. Very grateful for your hard work.
Just made this yesterday… and omg so delish. The only thing I changed was no oil for the onions. My 18 mo old loved this…she absolutely wouldn’t share lol. So easy to make especially if you do the boiling method for soaking cashews. I’ll be making again. Thank you thank you
Aw, I’m thrilled it was a hit, and with the whole fam! (I must admit, I sometimes have a hard time sharing this one too, hah ;))
“What a lovely restaurant, good food and service and atmosphere, definitely hope to go back. The roasties were YUMMY!!!“
I’m going to try this for lunch-am gluten/lactose intolerant and always looking for good nutritious recipes that won’t make me sick for weeks! Good site!
I hope you love it, Fran!
Looks yummy! Can I freeze this?
Hey Colleen, I haven’t tried this yet myself, but it’s something I’ve wondered about. I find that potato is hit and miss when it comes to freezing and thawing. For example, I tried freezing and thawing my cheese sauce (which has potato in it) and I noticed the texture changed a bit and it wasn’t as smooth and creamy. For this reason, I’m not sure how the soup would be impacted, but if you try it out please let us know. :)
I make the simplest broccoli soups often. all of them vegan. I thought I’d give the “cheese” addition a try. I’m sorry, our family was disappointed. It was spicy and bland. I’d rather have all the ingredients separate than add it again into a soup. The presentation was beautiful but it just didn’t deliver on taste. :/
This is so good! I didn’t have any refined coconut oil and so planned on substituting canola as it was the only mild flavored oil on hand. Unfortunately, I forgot about that plan and used my regular coconut oil….it made the final product have a strange aftertaste. That’s on me, though! It still tasted great over all and will try it again with the recommended oil. Fair warning: Don’t use unrefined coconut oil. :)
Fantastic soup on these cold days, we’re getting lately. I wanted my reader’s to try this “Vegan” version of one of my favorites. I’ve posted it under my “weekly” recipes, chosen for their enjoyment, and linked it back to “ohsheglows.com”
I made this recipe today and it was filling and delicious! I had to keep myself from eating all the “cheese” sauce on its own, though! (I might use it as a chip dip sometime, hmm…) I used regular white miso because that’s what I already had and I topped it with homemade popcorn with melted coconut oil and sprinkled with nutritional yeast.
Also, I didn’t peel the potatoes (because I’m lazy.) It certainly didn’t look as pretty, but it didn’t compromise the taste or texture at all.
This was delicious! I didn’t have the miso, but the soup was still wonderful and the cheese sauce was a big hit with my kids (as were the croutons!) I also fed it to my 87 year old (decidedly NOT vegan) mother and she loved it (didn’t feel the need to tell her either!) It looked beautiful as well – I would serve this to guests at my table.
As a huge fan of your blog, I trusted that this was going to be delicious, but I was skeptical seeing nutritional yeast on the ingredients list (I’ve had gross experiences with other recipes that included nutritional yeast). However, I LOVE this soup! I think the miso plays an important part in the flavor and gives it a yummy kick. There are so many spices and ingredients that all come together for a delicious soup. I think serving it with croutons would definitely give it a better visual appeal, but you don’t need them for taste :) Love knowing that I’m eating something healthy, packed with so much broccoli, and that is creamy without any dairy. Thank you!
Oh, I’m so happy you enjoyed the recipe, Kayla — even with the nutritional yeast! Thanks so much for taking the time to let me know :)
This soup looks delicious. I was looking for a new soup idea and this is perfect. It looks like good comfort food the whole family can enjoy.
I hope you love it if you give it a try, Edwina! I really do find it’s perfect comfort dish.:)
Though normally I would prefer non veg soups this vegan recipe is definitely an attention grabber and one I’m definitely trying this weekend. The creamy flavor with the broccoli.. looks yummy :).. thanks for the awesome recipe.
Hope you enjoy it, Jennifer!
