Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 white or yellow onion (chopped)
2-3 cloves garlic (minced)
2-3 teaspoons minced ginger (to taste)
2 medium yellow or yukon gold potatoes (peeled and roughly chopped (about 3/4-1 pound))
1 teaspoon salt
4 cups low sodium vegetable broth
2 heaping cups broccoli stems or florets (or chopped asparagus, chopped baby bok choy, or roughly chopped zucchini)
4 cups tightly packed (roughly chopped kale, Swiss chard, beet greens, or spinach)
1 cup unsweetened soy or almond milk
Black pepper to taste
For serving: white beans (cooked rice, cooked quinoa, coconut bacon, toasted chickpeas, toasted pepitas, fresh herbs, etc.)

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large stock or soup pot over medium heat. Add the onion. Saute onion for 5 minutes, or until it's clear and soft. Add the garlic and ginger and cook for another minute, or until the garlic is very fragrant.
  • Add the potatoes, salt, and broth to the pot. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer. Simmer, covered, for 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork tender. Add the broccoli (or other vegetable). Simmer for 5-10 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender. Stir in the kale or other leafy greens, cover, and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the kale is bright green and wilted.
  • Transfer the soup to a blender in batches to puree thoroughly, adding water as needed if the soup is too thick (remember that you'll also add some soy or almond milk after blending). Return the soup to the pot and stir in the plant milk and black pepper to taste, as well as a pinch of salt if desired. Serve with toppings of choice.
  • Soup will keep in an airtight container for up to three days and can be frozen for 2-3 weeks.

These simple ingredients cook up into a soup that's much more than the sum of its parts and is still low-cal enough that you can round it out with crusty bread and cheese on the side.
