I have always had a thing for broccoli soup,
Bone broth is so soothing too;
I remember the first time I made this.
Putting this recipe together is quick, easy, and ready in what seems like seconds. I don’t know if you keep parsnips in the house but I do as I like the hint of horseradish in this dish. I have become enamored with making my own soups and this is a fun one to try.
Broccoli Soup with Bone Broth
- 1 large celery rib (thinly sliced)
- 1 medium bunch broccoli (florets only, coarsely chopped)
- 1 medium onion (chopped)
- 2 small parsnips (peeled and sliced)
- 4 cups bone broth (chicken/vegetable broth can be substituted)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 2-3 tsp. lemon juice (optional)
- Chopped fresh parsley for garnish
- Place celery, broccoli, onion, parsnips, broth and pepper in a deep stock pot. Cover tightly and bring to boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are very tender, about 20 minutes.
- In a blender, puree soup until velvet-smooth. Serve in bowls or pour into mugs. Garnish with parsley if desired.
