Vegan Broccoli Potato Soup

Vegan Broccoli Potato Soup

I love a good soup – eating it, making it, all of the things. This vegan broccoli potato soup is one of those easy recipes that’s hearty and filling. It’s also wildly simple, which makes it even better. The potato adds a thicker consistency and the broth makes this soup super flavorful!

There are many things I love about my husband. It’s wonderful how similar we are and how much closer we are becoming the longer we’re together. My love of vegetables, however, isn’t one he’s identical to me. He’s cool with them generally, but it’s not to the same level. Our five year old, however, is quite the veggie lover, so we’ll see how his love for them unfolds over the years to come.

When I was a kid, broccoli was one of the vegetables I happily enjoyed. I also loved onions and corn. Beets and mushrooms were things I fell in love with only in my 30s – it was honestly a version of this beet and goat cheese salad we had in Portland that did it for me.

Anyway. Broccoli. My husband was very anti-broccoli until I roasted it one time with lemon zest and parmesan on top. Now he’s on board with broccoli, if only roasted! Now to get him into soups…

While soups, especially potato soups can be heavy, this vegan broccoli potato soup banks on the deliciousness of the plant-based ingredients, so you don’t have to feel bogged down. And if you do want a small indulgence, you can add a dab of butter or cream at the end, but I don’t think it needs it.

If you skip the butter or cream in the soup, you can all eat buttery toast with this soup! And since we know I’ll be eating this whole batch of soup on my own, I appreciate guilt-free deliciousness!

In need of more yummy soups? This one pot lentil soup has been my favorite recipes for years as has this pea soup (both vegan). I recently discovered homemade Tuscan white bean soup with kale, and it’s constantly on my mind!

This leftover turkey chili with white beans (easily subbed with chicken) is a favorite for my husband!
