Vegan Broccoli and Pea Soup
Updated: Jan 30, 2021
The second recipe of our Veganuary 2021 challenge happens to be a green coloured one as well, just like the Green Smoothie. But this time we are having our greens in the form of this cosy, delicious and soul-warming Vegan Broccoli and Pea Soup, made with beautiful florets of broccoli, tiny garden peas and hearty potatoes. I used some leftover veggie stock for this one, but vegan veggie cubes work as well.
As for Veganuary, it is day 6 today and... well, it is a true challenge for someone who did not strictly follow this diet/lifestyle before! Even though we used to prepare and eat lots of vegetarian and vegan food (and we love these dishes), we never thought it can be quite difficult to always choose the right ingredients for our meals and to provide our bodies with the necessary nutrients. However, I still think it's great. I can feel some changes already and I do love getting creative in the kitchen with all those amazing ingredients! And so does my husband! He did not give up either and I am so proud 🥰

Vegan Broccoli and Pea Soup
Prep time: 5 min
Total time: 30 min
Serves: 4
Ingredients:
- 1 small onion

- 2 small potatoes
- 2 tbsp olive oil

Directions:
1. Coarsely chop up the onion, celery stalk, garlic, potatoes and cut the broccoli into smaller florets.
2. In a large pot heat up the olive oil and add the onion, celery, garlic and potatoes, and sauté for a couple of minutes.
3. Pour the stock into the pot and bring it to the boil. When the potatoes are halfway cooked add the broccoli florets and cook them until all the veggies are soft.
4. Finally, add the garden peas and boil for another 2 minutes. Liquidise the soup with the help of a stick blender, or a regular blender. Season with salt and pepper.

Serve this Vegan Broccoli and Pea Soup with a slice of toast and sprinkle with your favourite seeds. I used sunflower seeds and linseeds, but pumpkin seeds or toasted almond flakes are a delicious addition to it, too.
