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 number conscious. Nutritional yeast brings that cheesy flavour, broccoli packs in fibre 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

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
  2. Add onion, celery, and garlic. Sauté 5–7 minutes until softened.
  3. Add broccoli and broth. Simmer for 10 minutes, until broccoli is tender.
  4. Add almond milk, nutritional yeast, paprika, turmeric, salt, and pepper.
  5. Blend with an immersion blender until creamy (or carefully transfer to a blender in batches).
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning.
  7. 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.
