Ingrediënten

1 Tablespoon minced shallots

1-2 Tablespoons olive oil

1/4 cup very finely chopped celery

4 1/2 cup chopped broccoli into bite-sized pieces

2 cups vegetable broth (if Whole30 check your ingredients)

1 1/2 cup raw cashews (soak overnight in water)

1 1/4 cup Califia unsweetened almond milk

1/2 cup + 2 Tablespoons nutritional yeast

1 Teaspoon salt (more to taste)

Instructies

In large sauce pan, add olive oil and shallots and bring to medium high heat; stir shallots and let reduce for approximately 1-2 minutes.

Add celery and continue cooking for 2-3 minutes (add another Tablespoon of olive oil if you need to).

Once celery has cooked down, add broccoli and vegetable broth.

Bring to a simmer.

In high-powered blender, add cashews (drain first), almond milk, nutritional yeast and salt.

Blend on high until smooth and creamy (use spatula to scrape down sides several times) approximately 4 minutes.

Once your the vegetable broth has been simmering for about 5 minutes, add your cashew sauce and start stirring to combine.

Bring to a simmer and continue stirring – soup will thicken after a couple of minutes.

Taste and add additional salt, as desired. (I added another 1/2 Teaspoon).
