🥣 Cozy Potato & Broccoli Soup
It’s STILL so cold out, and we’ve been living on cozy soup lately. Soup is my easiest “empty nest” meal to cook… simple to put together, made in the crock pot, and perfect for leftovers. It’s also an easy recipe to share with your college kiddo or young adult cooking for themselves.
Soup is such a simple way to nourish your body and pack in nutrients, including protein and fiber. I’ve also been baking sourdough, and there’s nothing better than dipping warm bread into cozy soup. 🤍
Potatoes get a bad rap, but they’re actually incredibly nourishing. This soup is packed with potatoes, carrots, chickpeas, and dill, making it full of protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Dill adds flavor and a little extra health boost too.
📝 Ingredients
🥔 2 cups broth of choice (I use bone broth for extra protein)
🥦 1 cup coconut water (extra hydration)
🥔 1 can unsweetened coconut milk (creamy!)
🥦 10–15 small potatoes, cubed
🥔 3 Tbsp dill (or fresh)
🥦 1 tsp cayenne (adjust to taste)
🥔 3 tsp salt
🥦 6 carrots, chopped
🥔 2 stalks broccoli, chopped
🥦 1 can chickpeas
🥔 Olive oil
👩🍳 How to make
Add all ingredients except the broccoli and chickpeas to the crock pot. Cook on high for several hours.
While cooking:
• Roast the broccoli in the oven or air fryer 🥦
• Sauté the chickpeas in olive oil 🥄 until browned
Blend the soup until creamy using a hand blender. This soup is thick, so add extra broth if desired. Stir in the broccoli and chickpeas.
✨ Optional toppings
🧀 Parmesan cheese
🤍 Sour cream
Can also add in shredded chicken.
