Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 large Sweet Potato (peeled and diced)
  • 1 head Broccoli (cut into 1-2 inch florets, include the stems)
  • ½ cup Cashews
  • ¼ cup Nutritional Yeast
  • ½ Onion (chopped)
  • 3 cloves Garlic (chopped)
  • 5 cups Vegetable Broth (we like using Better Than Bouillon)
  • ¼ tsp Salt (or to taste)

Instructions

  • Prep: Begin by chopping ½ Onion and 3 cloves Garlic. Peel and chop 1 large Sweet Potato and roughly chop 1 head Broccoli.
  • Cook: In a large pot, heat a drizzle of olive oil and saute the onion for 1-2 minutes. Add in the garlic and cook for a little while longer, making sure not to burn the garlic. Then add in the broccoli, sweet potato, ½ cup Cashews, and 5 cups Vegetable Broth. Cover and bring to a boil, then lower the heat to a simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes have cooked fully.
  • Blend: Add ¼ cup Nutritional Yeast and use an immersion blender to blend or transfer to a blender. Give it a taste and add ¼ tsp Salt if you feel it needs it.
  • Serve: Enjoy topped with fresh black pepper and a side of crusty bread.
