Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon canola oil (or other vegetable oil)
2 cups onions, chopped
1/4 cup celery, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 stalks broccoli
4 1/2 cups water or 4 1/2 cups vegetable stock
1/3 cup quick-cooking oatmeal
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon dried dill
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
minced fresh chives
lemon slice, garnish (paper thin)

Steps:

  • Combine in a soup pot the oil, onions, celery, garlic and salt.
  • Cook covered on medium heat for 10 minutes, stirring often.
  • Meanwhile, rinse the broccoli, cut into 4-5 cups of florets, and peel and chop the stems to make about 2 cups.
  • Reserve 1 cup of florets.
  • When the onions are clear, add 4 cups of the water or stock and all the broccoli except for the reserved florets.
  • Cover and bring to a boil.
  • Lower the heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Add the oats and simmer gently for about 10 minutes, stirring often, until the broccoli is tender and the soup begins to thicken.
  • Remove from the heat and then stir in the lemon juice, dill and pepper.
  • Working in batches, puree the soup (in a blender, preferably) until smooth.
  • Bring the remaining 1/2 cup water to a boil in a small sauce pan.
  • Add the reserved broccoli florets and cook, covered, until they are bright green and crisp tender, about 3-5 minutes.
  • Stir the florets and their cooking water into the soup.
  • Garnish with lemon slices and chives if desired.
  • Serve.

I'm allergic to dairy, so I used vegan cheese in this soup. It turned out great!

This soup was a bit too thick for my taste. I would recommend adding more broth or water to thin it out.

I'm not a big fan of broccoli, but I actually enjoyed this soup. The cheese and spices really helped to balance out the flavor of the broccoli.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I had to add some extra salt and pepper to make it more flavorful. The broccoli was also a bit overcooked, so I would recommend cooking it for a shorter amount of time.

This soup is amazing! I love that it's creamless, because it's just as rich and flavorful without the added fat. The broccoli is perfectly tender and the cheese adds a nice touch of flavor. I will definitely be making this again!
