Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion peeled and diced
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 head broccoli about 3-4 cups
- 2 potatoes peeled and cubed
- ¾ cup Parmesan cheese divided
- parsley fresh, for serving
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, until softened.
- Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Add the broccoli florets, potatoes, and vegetable broth to the saucepan. Bring to a boil. Then reduce to a simmer and cook for 20-30 minutes, until broccoli and potatoes are fork tender.
- Use an immersion blender to puree the soup to a creamy consistency. If you do not have an immersion blender, transfer the soup to a regular blender for this step, and then return it to the pot.
- Stir in ½ cup of the parmesan cheese, and stir until well combined.
- Serve sprinkled with fresh parsley and the remaining parmesan cheese.
