Slowcooker Potato & Broccoli Soup

Slowcooker Potato & Broccoli Soup



Prep Time: 15 Min

Cook Time: 3 Hr HIGH / 5 1/2 - 6 Hr LOW

​ 

1. In a small frying pan, start heating a couple tbsp. of EVOO on medium heat. Once heated, add the onion, celery, and a pinch of sea salt. Stir and cook 5 – 6 minutes adding the garlic after half the time. Remove from heat.

 

1. Start by adding the potatoes to the crockpot followed by the broccoli, sautéed veg, stock, seasonings, and cubed butter. Cover and set timer according to high or low cook time.

 

1. Once fully cooked, remove ¾ of the soup and transfer it to a large mixing bowl. Use an immersion blended to puree the soup until creamy and fully blended. Return the blended soup back to the pot and stir.

 

1. Taste and adjust salt if desired. For service, a garnish of fresh pea shoots, sprinkle of red pepper flakes, freshly cracked pepper, and a drizzle of whipping cream work beautifully.
