Vegetarian Broccoli "Cheese" soup
I haven't made this yet but sounds interesting. I have a friend who did taste this at a vegetarian slow cooker class that she is taking and she said it was very good.
Sorry, no nutritional stats on this one either.
3 1/2 cups water
1 2/3 cups raw, chopped carrots
1 1/2 cups raw, chopped potatoes
1 cup onion, cut in chunks
1/2 cup raw cashews
1 3/4 tsp salt
1# frozen broccoli or 4 cups fresh, chopped in small pieces
Lightly boil carrots, potatoes and onion in the water until tender, 15-20 min. Put cashews and salt in a blender along with part of the vegetables and part of the water from the saucepan. Blend for a full minute, until very smooth. Empty blender and blend smooth rest of ingredients from the pan. Cook the broccoli until tender. Combine all ingredients. Reheat and serve.
Sliced or chopped carrots and potatoes may be used for part or all of the broccoli. Or use other favorite vegetables, such as frozen, mixed vegetables, in place of the broccoli.
