Ingredients

For the Soup:

  • 2-3 large heads of broccoli washed and cut into pieces
  • a generous pinch of sea salt up to 2 teaspoons
  • water

Optional Ingredients for Topping and Serving:

  • grated cheddar cheese optional
  • freshly cracked black pepper
  • goat cheese or use creme fraiche, sour cream, or coconut cream
  • chopped walnuts
  • olive oil for drizzling

Instructions

  • Boil a large pot of water and add the sea salt to the water.
  • Add the broccoli pieces into the water for about 3 minutes, just enough time for them to become slightly soft.
  • Remove the broccoli from the water with a slotted spoon and add it to your blender. Keep the broccoli water.
  • Add enough of the broccoli water to the blender to fill it to about halfway up the broccoli, or slightly less.
  • Blend on high speed until smooth, adding more water to loosen the soup if necessary.
  • Serve with whatever toppings you wish - a drizzle of olive oil, chopped walnuts and goat cheese, cheddar cheese, etc.
