The Raw Truth

Cream of Broccoli Soup

Broccoli and cauliflower are two of the most beautiful plants in nature. When flowering, these members of the Brassica genus have giant

bulbous flower heads surrounded by olive green, cabbagelike leaves. Broccoli stems can be used as well as the florets; just peel them first.

SERVES 2 TO 4

1 cup sprouted almonds

3 cups filtered water

1 small head broccoli, chopped (about 2 cups)

½ cup chopped red onion

¼ cup loosely packed fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves

2 tablespoons nutritional yeast

1 tablespoon Bragg Liquid Aminos

2 tablespoons minced onion, for garnish

2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish

Place the almonds and the water in a blender and blend until smooth. Pour the mixture into a bowl and stir in the broccoli, red onion, parsley, yeast,
and Braggs. Spoon the soup into individual serving bowls. Top each with a little of the minced onion and cilantro and serve.
