Ingredients:

• 2 bunches broccoli
• 2 large white sweet potatoes
• 2 cloves garlic, diced
• 1 red pepper, diced
• 2 tablespoons tamari

Directions:

1. Cut off the florets of the broccoli so that you have almost no portion of the stalk and place in a separate bowl.

2. Cut the stalks of the broccoli and the sweet potato into small pieces.

 

3. Place in a medium pot and fill with water just until the veggies are covered and bring to a boil.

4. Cook until soft, about 10-12 minutes. _5. Remove broccoli and potato from the water and blend in blender.

6. Slowly add the water from the pot to your blender until you get a good soup consistency.

7. Add garlic and tamari, and blend.

8. Place soup back in the pot, add broccoli florets and red pepper.

9. Leave on low heat for 5-10 minutes. Serve hot with a little fresh ground pepper.

Variations:

This soup is great with a little parmesan cheese or organic cheddar sprinkled on top of your bowl. Soup is also a great place to use up leftovers. Toss in whole grains, beans or leftover veggies to give it a little extra kick.
