Ingredients

Scale

4 cups fresh broccoli florets
2 large Yukon Gold potatoes, diced (about 2 cups)
1 medium onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
1 cup heavy cream (or coconut milk for dairy-free)
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Chop the onion, garlic, and potatoes into small pieces for even cooking.
In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté onions until translucent (about 5 minutes); then add garlic and cook for an additional minute.
Stir in diced potatoes and broccoli florets; cook for 3 minutes while stirring occasionally.
Pour in vegetable broth to cover the vegetables by an inch; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes until fork-tender.
Blend the soup until smooth using an immersion blender or regular blender (leave some chunks if desired).
Return to low heat and stir in cream or dairy alternative; warm through without boiling. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper before serving.
