A cozy bowl of comfort without the heavy cream or cheese—this plant-based twist on classic broccoli cheddar soup is rich, nourishing, and satisfying while staying low carb. Nutritional yeast brings that cheesy flavor, broccoli packs in fiber and nutrients, and a touch of smoked paprika adds depth. Perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or as a warming starter for your holiday table.
Ingredients
Directions
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
- Add onion, celery, and garlic. Sauté 5–7 minutes until softened.
- Add broccoli and broth. Simmer for 10 minutes, until broccoli is tender.
- Add almond milk, nutritional yeast, paprika, turmeric, salt, and pepper.
- Blend with an immersion blender until creamy (or carefully transfer to a blender in batches).
- Taste and adjust seasoning.
- Serve warm with Carbonaut croutons or toasted slices on the side.
*Garnish each bowl with a swirl of dairy-free sour cream or coconut cream for a beautiful finish. Top with an extra sprinkle of smoked paprika, nutritional yeast, or roasted broccoli florets. Pair with Carbonaut croutons or toasted bread for dipping.
