Dairy-Free Creamy Broccoli Soup image

The satiny texture of this soup will make you think it's cream-based, but it's absolutely dairy-free and delicious! It's a perfect dish to use up leftover broccoli stalks that don't fit into other meals. It freezes well and makes a great winter warm-up snack or lunch! Can be served immediately, seasoned with black pepper, curry powder, or even grated cheese (for people who don't mind dairy) or can be frozen in individual portions and microwaved later.

BROCCOLI CASSEROLE WITH NO "CREAM OF SOMETHING" SOUPS!



Broccoli Casserole With No

I love broccoli, and I love cream cheese, so this is a natural for me! When I was growing up, we always had that broccoli casserole with the rice, cheese, and cream of chicken, mushroom, or celery soup. But I have been trying to avoid the sodium content in the cream of "whatever" soups, and found that this broccoli casserole is really tastey! I've listed topping it with bread crumbs or ritz crackers, whichever is your preference. Do not use both...it is too much breading on top! I've also made this using fresh chopped broccoli and garlic, great either way! I hope you enjoy it!

Tips:

  • Choose the right broccoli. Look for broccoli with tightly closed florets and a deep green color. Avoid broccoli with yellow or wilted florets.
  • Wash the broccoli thoroughly. Soak the broccoli in a bowl of cold water for 30 minutes to remove any dirt or debris. Be sure to rinse the broccoli well before cooking.
  • Cut the broccoli into small florets. This will help the broccoli cook evenly and quickly.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth. The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich flavor.
  • Don't overcook the broccoli. Broccoli should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight crunch. Overcooked broccoli will become mushy and lose its flavor.
  • Season the soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of sour cream for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

Broccoli cheddar soup is a delicious and comforting soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It's also a healthy soup that is packed with vitamins and minerals. With a few simple tips, you can make a broccoli cheddar soup that is sure to please everyone at your table.
