Instructions
- Heat the olive up in a medium pot on medium/high heat. Add the minced onion and cook until lightly golden, about 1-2 minutes.
- Add in the broccoli and cook for 1 minute. Pour in the stock, reduce the heat to medium and simmer while you make the cream.
- Drain the water from the cashews and place them into a high-powered blender (such as a Vitamix or Blendtec) along with the rest of the remaining ingredients.
- Blend until smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides as necessary.
- Pour the cream into the soup, raise the temperature to medium and simmer until thickened, only 1-2 minutes more. Season to taste with salt and pepper as needed.
- DEVOUR.
Notes
- *I buy my cashews pre-roasted. Do not skip roasting, as it adds a lot of flavor. If your cashews aren't pre-roasted, bake them in a 375 degree oven for 7-10 minutes until lightly golden brown. Do this BEFORE soaking overnight.**I like it best with 1 1/4 tsp of salt, but I do like things salty, so I recommend starting with 1 tsp, tasting, and adding as needed
