Steps:
- Heat oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, and pepper flakes and cook, stirring, until tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Add broth and bring to a boil. Add broccoli and cook, covered, until bright green and tender, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat, stir in spinach, and let cool slightly.
- Transfer soup to blend and puree with avocado. Adjust seasoning. Garnish with avocado and a drizzle of olive oil.
Tips:
- Use fresh broccoli. Fresh broccoli has a more intense flavor and is more nutritious than frozen broccoli. If you must use frozen broccoli, thaw it completely before using.
- Don't overcook the broccoli. Overcooked broccoli will lose its flavor and become mushy. Cook it just until it is tender-crisp.
- Use a good quality broth. The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good one. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich flavor.
- Season the soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You may also want to add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of sour cream.
- Serve the soup hot. Cream of broccoli soup is best served hot, with a side of crusty bread or crackers.
Conclusion:
This creamy broccoli soup has fresh broccoli florets and a delicious creamy broth. It's a comforting and flavorful soup that's perfect for a cold day. It's also a great way to use up leftover broccoli. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious bowl of cream of broccoli soup that the whole family will love.
