Simply Yummy Broccoli Soup

Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: 20 minutes
Yields: 4 servings

Ingredients:

• 2 bunches broccoli
• 2 large white sweet potatoes
• 2 cloves garlic, diced
• 1 red pepper, diced
• 2 tablespoons tamari

Directions:

1. Cut off the flowers of the broccoli so that you have almost no portion of the stock and place in a separate bowl.
2. Cut the stock of the broccoli and the sweet potato into small pieces.
3. Place in a medium pot and fill with water just until the veggies are covered and bring to a boil.
4. Cook until soft, about 10-12 minutes.
5. Remove broccoli and potato from the water and blend in blender.
6. Slowly add the water from the pot to your blender to get a good soup consistency.
7. Add garlic and tamari, and blend.
8. Place soup back in the pot, add broccoli flowers and red pepper.
9. Leave on low heat for 5-10 minutes. Serve hot with a little fresh ground pepper.

1. This soup is great with a little parmesan cheese or organic cheddar sprinkled on top of your bowl.
2. Soup is also a great place to unload leftovers. Toss in whole grains, beans or leftover veggies to give it a little extra kick.
