soup season won't be quite the same unless you try this creamy cheesy broccoli chowder. It's simple to make & packed full of plant-based goodness. Served with crispy tempeh bacon, a sprinkle of cheese & fresh parsley. I can guarantee you will keep coming back for more & more of this beautiful & nourishing chowder. The trick to making a thick & creamy soup/chowder is to remove 1/4 of the soup mix, transfer to a blender & blend until smooth. Then stir back into your soup pot, along with some cream. Serve with some crusty sourdough because what even is soup without bread!

1)Heat 1 tbsp olive oil over a medium to low heat. Add the diced onion, celery and carrots with a 1 tsp of sea salt and gently fry for 8 mins, stirring frequently. 2)Add the minced garlic & fry for a further 2 mins, stirring constantly so it doesn’t burn.
3) Stir in the potatoes & nutritional yeast. Then pour over the veg stock & stir in the bay leaf. Season with plenty of cracked black pepper & sea salt. Allow to bubble away for 5 mins then add the broccoli and allow to simmer for a further 5 mins.
4) Remove from the heat, remove the bay leaf and ladle 1/4 of the soup mix into a blender and blend until smooth.
Add back to the pot along with the cream. Allow to warm through on the heat, and check seasoning, adding more salt if needed. (soup often needs plenty of salt)
5)serve with tempeh bacon(optional), a sprinkle of cheese & some fresh parsley. Then enjoy with some crusty sourdough.
