Smooth Broccoli Vitamix Soup

4.4
(17)

This is a healthy and simple soup I whipped up for the Vitamix. Can easily be made vegetarian or vegan by substituting vegetable broth and/or non-dairy milk. You can reserve some of the microwaved broccoli and potatoes and add them after blending if you like more substance to your soup. Enjoy!

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 1 ½ teaspoons olive oil

  • ½ small onion, diced

  • 2 potatoes, diced

  • 1 head broccoli, cut into florets

  • 1 cup milk

  • 1 cup chicken broth

  • teaspoon ground black pepper

  • teaspoon sea salt

  • teaspoon ground ginger

  • teaspoon ground thyme

Directions

  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; saute onion until translucent, 5 to 10 minutes.

  2. Spread potatoes and broccoli onto a microwave-safe plate. Cook in microwave until tender, 4 to 5 minutes.

  3. Place onion, potatoes, broccoli, milk, chicken broth, pepper, salt, ginger, and thyme in the Vitamix or blender. Start on variable 1, slowly increase to variable 10, and end on high for 4 to 5 minutes. Serve hot.

Cook’s Note

This recipe was made specifically for the Vitamix 5200 with a 64-ounce container. I cannot promise the outcome will be the same in a different blender.
