Last Minute Broccoli Soup for Two

I needed something fast for lunch one day last week. I had a big bag of broccoli that I bought at Costco that needed to be used, so I came up with a super fast broccoli soup. 

 There's really nothing to it. 


V Use vegetable stock and vegan crackers or croutons to make this vegan. 

Last Minute Broccoli Soup for Two
Makes 2 servings

Ingredients
  • 2 cups chicken stock
  • 2 cups broccoli pieces
  • 1 medium potato, peeled and diced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • pinch of nutmeg
  • Mini buttery crackers (or crushed up Ritz)
Directions
  1. In a small pot, bring stock up to a boil then reduce heat to medium low and simmer broccoli and potato in the stock for about 10 minutes or until very tender. Transfer to a blender and puree until smooth. Return to the pot and bring back up to a simmer. Stir in spices. Serve with crackers.
Tips:
  • There's no need to thicken this soup, the potato will do the job for you when you blend.
