INGREDIENTS TO MAKE THIS COZY SOUP

You can find the full detailed & printable recipe in the card below!

  • 20 oz broccoli , I used 2 small heads
  • 20 oz potatoes
  • 2 tbsp vegan butter
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 5 cups vegetable broth
  • 2 tsp miso paste optional for extra umami
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup unsweetened oat or soy milk or other plant milk
  • 1 tsp salt or to taste
  • 2 tbsp nutritional yeast , optional
  • 3/4 cup vegan cheddar shreds

TO SERVE

  • More vegan cheddar or parmesan cheese
  • Crusty bread

TO MAKE THE SOUP

BROCCOLI AND POTATOES

  • Broccoli: peel the tougher and fibrous outer layers of the stalks. Chop off the broccoli heads from the stalks.
  • For the stalks, I sliced the stalks horizontally in half before slicing into small half-circle pieces. Set aside.
  • For the broccoli heads, simply separate these into florets. Roughly chop the florets into smaller chunks. Set aside.

  • Potatoes: Peel the potatoes and then chop into 1 to 2-inch (2.5 to 5 cm) chunks.

BOIL UNTIL TENDER BEFORE BLENDING

  • Heat a large dutch oven or pot over medium high. Once hot, melt the vegan butter. Add the onion and garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent, around 2 minutes.
  • Add in the diced potatoes and broccoli stalks into the pot. Add in the vegetable broth. Add in the miso paste. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover the pot and leave to boil.
  • Leave the potatoes and broccoli stalks to cook for 8-10 minutes until fork tender.
  • Once tender. Allow to cook for a few minutes before transferring to a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy. You can also use an immersion blender.

COOK THE SOUP

  • Place back the soup into the pot. Add in the oat milk, more salt to taste (if needed), nutritional yeast (if using), and vegan cheddar shreds.
  • Mix in the chopped broccoli florets. Leave the broccoli florets to cook for 4-5 minutes or until tender to your liking.

WANT A SMOOTH SOUP?

  • If you prefer a completely smooth soup, you can skip chopping up the florets and add this along with the potatoes and stalks in the pot, then blend everything until smooth. 

SERVE AND ENJOY!

  • Serve the soup while hot and then top with more shredded cheddar cheese. Enjoy with bread of your choice.

    What brand of vegan cheddar do you like to use? I saw in the video that you were grating it and I haven’t found a block of vegan cheddar that I really like.

      I love Daiya Foods and Good Planet Foods vegan cheddar blocks ◡̈

    This broccoli soup is so creamy and delicious. My non-vegan husband says it’s very good. I used Violife’s cheddar shreds and grated Violife parm on top as a garnish. Rustic,homemade whole-grain bread on the side; a yummy and satisfying meal.

    My family is a huge fan of hot soup, so everyone in my family can enjoy this recipe. This dish is easy to make and doesn’t take too long. Plus, I can feel good about serving this meal because it’s healthy and I can make it a part of my family’s weekly meal rotation. Plus, the addition of nutritional yeast gives this soup a nice umami flavor that is sure to have everyone in the family asking for seconds.
