Recipe: Broccoli-Potato Soup

Sitting in front of the TV on cold winter nights, nothing can be better than having a big bowl of vegetable soup by your side. So, today we have a recipe for Broccoli Potato Soup here.

Ingredients:

• 3 potatoes; peeled and quartered
• 1 head of Broccoli (Having 2 cups of broccoli florets would even serve the purpose)
• 1 clove garlic; minced
• 1 onion; peeled and diced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1⁄4 tablespoon thyme

Instructions

1. Take a stockpot, large enough to cover the ingredients. Heat the olive oil. Be sure that you are keeping a note of the temperature. Keep it at medium heat to be on the safer side. Once done, cook the garlic and onion for a couple of minutes. Keep watching it.

2. Now, add potatoes to the pot and cover it. Let it boil for a couple of minutes. Keep checking its status. Reduce the heat slightly. This might take some time. So, be patient. Cook it until you feel potatoes are tender. Here, you can even add vegetable broth for that tasteful delight.

4. This bright green mix should be blended so that it looks better. Now, the soup is ready and can be served to the guests.

Add-ons:

1. If you want to make it even better, add cheese to it and make it a Broccoli Cheese Potato Soup. For this, you need one or one and a half cup of shredded Cheddar cheese.

2. If you want, you can add salt and pepper to the mix. This will spice up your soup.

3. While serving, you can garnish it with vegan sour cream or chives.

4. Many people do not prefer adding butter to their soup. However, if you want it; four tablespoons of butter would look good.

If you want to buy one from an online store, look out for coupon sites for coupons. You can get the same broth for a lesser price.

2. Milk. Not everyone likes milk in their soup, but it is a healthy option. To make it healthier, use fat-free milk. Quantity: Four cups.
