INGREDIENTS:
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil or butter
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 large head of broccoli, cut into florets (stems chopped)
- 4 cups of chicken or vegetable stock (ensure it’s low-carb)
- 1/2 cup of whipping cream
- 100g of Stilton cheese, crumbled
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 scoop of super greens powder
- Optional garnish: crumbled Stilton cheese, a drizzle of olive oil, fresh herbs
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Prep the Ingredients:
- Heat the olive oil or butter in a large pot over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onions and minced garlic. Sauté until the onions become translucent and the garlic is fragrant, about 3-5 minutes.
- Cook the Broccoli:
- Add the broccoli florets and stems to the pot and stir to coat with the onion and garlic mixture.
- Sauté the broccoli for another 5 minutes until it turns bright green and is lightly roasted.
- Add Liquids and Simmer:
- Pour in the stock and bring the mixture to a simmer.
- Let it cook until the broccoli is tender, about 10-15 minutes.
- Blend the Soup:
- Once the broccoli is tender, use an immersion blender to blend the soup directly in the pot until it’s smooth. Alternatively, you can carefully transfer the soup to a blender.
- Mix in the Cream, Cheese, and Super Greens:
- Stir in the heavy cream and crumbled Stilton cheese until the cheese has melted into the soup.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Once the soup is off the heat, stir in the super greens powder until fully incorporated.
- Garnish and Serve:
- Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with additional Stilton cheese, a drizzle of olive oil, and fresh herbs if desired.
- Serve hot and enjoy your nutritious, keto-friendly soup!
