Raw and Creamy Broccoli Soup

So easy to make and no one will EVER know it's a RAW soup!

Blend all of the below ingredients in a high-speed blender. (I use a Vita- Mix)

Blend on high for a minute or two, until it's warmed and creamy.

  • 3 cups filtered and warmed water - Not boiling
  • 2 cups chopped, raw (uncooked) broccoli (one head of broccoli)
  • 1 cup of raw, soaked cashews. (Nuts soaked for 20 minutes in water are best) but it's OK not to soak if you don't have time.
  • 1 T raw agave syrup (or 1 tsp of raw honey)
  • 1 large avocado
  • 1 clove of garlic
  • 1/2 to 1 tsp. sea salt
  • 1 tsp. onion powder. You can use raw onion, but I find it a bitter in the soup.
  • 1 T. cumin powder
  • 1/8 tsp. black pepper

I eat this soup for dinner at least once a week. You can also use soaked almonds, but almonds need to soak on water for 8 hours. I've also used almond butter (3/4 cup) in place of nuts. All versions are delicious, but cashews make the creamiest soup.

This a hearty and very satiating soup. Left overs will keep in the fridge for 2 days.
