Sweet Potato Broccoli Soup Recipes

SWEET POTATO BROCCOLI SOUP

Steps:

• In 4-quart saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion and leek to oil; cook 4 minutes, stirring frequently, until soft. Stir in broth, sweet potatoes and apple pieces. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer about 20 minutes or until sweet potatoes are tender.
• Meanwhile, in small microwavable bowl, place broccoli and water. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave on High 1 minute 30 seconds or until crisp-tender; set aside.
• In blender or food processor, place about one-third of soup mixture. Cover; blend on high speed until smooth, stopping blender to scrape side if necessary. Pour into large bowl. Repeat 2 times more with remaining soup mixture. Pour soup back into saucepan; stir in broccoli. Cover and heat over low heat about 10 minutes or until hot.
• Divide soup evenly among 6 bowls. To serve, top each serving with 1 tablespoon sour cream and 2 apple slices.

BROCCOLI, HAM, AND SWEET POTATO SOUP

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large pot or Dutch oven and cook onion until starting to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Add sweet potato and garlic; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add water, ham, and bouillon cubes; bring to a boil. Boil for 3 to 4 minutes. Add broccoli and until it reaches your desired tenderness, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of unsalted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain pasta and add to the soup. Serve immediately.

CREAMY SWEET POTATO AND VEGGIE SOUP

Steps:

• In a stockpot, saute onion in butter until transparent but not browned. Add the sweet potatoes, zucchini and broccoli; saute lightly for 5 minutes or until crisp-tender. Stir in broth; simmer for a few minutes. Add potatoes and seasonings; cook another 10 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Stir in cream and heat through.

CREAM OF BROCCOLI, SWEET POTATO, AND ZUCCHINI SOUP

Steps:

• Note before you start; the basil, tarragon, and cumin are added to taste--keep tasing till you get it the way you want it.
• Break up the broccoli into flowerettes and simmer alone in another pan; set aside.
• Cover the bottom of a large pot with butter and saute onions till golden, but not brown.
• Add the sweet potato and zucchini.
• Stir till veggies are hot and then cover with the chicken stock.
• Put a colander down into the pot of liquid so that the liquid is up through the holes.
• Measure the stock because this determines how much Creamora to put in (1 teaspoon of Creamora to 1 cup of liquid) and with a whisk, whisk in the Cremora.
• Add the celery seed, nutmeg, basil, tarragon, cumin, salt and pepper.
• Bring to a boil.
• Add the Potato Buds to the colander whisking all the time till it is thick.
• Then gently take out the colaner and stir. You can use more or less depending on the thickness that you like.
• Add the cream for extra richness (or a small can of evaporated milk would also do).
• Then add the broccoli using as much as you like.
• Do not boil this soup.

CREAMY BROCCOLI SOUP

Steps:

• Cut off the broccoli stems, then cut the stems into 1-inch-thick slices. Separate the florets into small pieces. Reserve the stems and florets separately.
• Heat a large Dutch oven or pot over medium-high and add the olive oil. Stir in the onion, carrot, tomato, sweet potato and the broccoli stems, spread in an even layer and season generously with salt and pepper. Let the vegetables on the bottom sear without stirring until lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Add the garlic powder and stir with a wooden spoon to hydrate the spice in the fat and continue cooking for another minute or so. The tomato will start to break down and get jammy.
• Add the coconut water, raise the heat to high and bring the soup to a boil. Cover, lower the heat to keep the soup at a gentle boil and continue cooking until all of the vegetables are mostly softened and the stock is imbued with savory flavor, about 10 minutes. For a creamier texture, remove the broccoli stems to snack on or discard; for more broccoli flavor (and roughage), leave the stems in.
• Stir in the broccoli florets and tofu, raise the heat to high and bring the soup to a boil. Cover and cook until a paring knife easily cuts the stem part of a broccoli floret, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Carefully ladle the contents of the pot into a blender and blend until smooth. Taste and add salt and pepper as needed, then add more coconut water or water to thin out the soup to your desired thickness.
• Serve hot in shallow bowls, each serving dolloped with a spoonful of fridge-cold ricotta, if using, and lightly drizzled with extra-virgin olive oil and sprinkled with herbs, if desired.

POTATO, BROCCOLI AND CHEESE SOUP

Steps:

• In a large stock pot saute onion in butter. Add potatoes, water and bouillon cubes. Cover, bring to boil and then reduce heat to medium and cook until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
• Remove tough outer skin of broccoli stems and cook broccoli. Once cooked add to soup.
• In a blender or food processor puree half of the soup and return to stock pot. Season with salt and pepper.
• Add cheese and heat soup through until cheese is melted. Serve warm.
