Simmer until bubbly and broccoli is bright green, about 5 minutes. 3. U sing tongs, pull out most of the broccoli pieces and set aside. Blend the soup, without broccoli, to a super creamy, cheesy- looking consistency, and then add the broccoli and just pulse a few times to mix it in. This will likely need to be done in batches. 4.

Notes Croutons: Heat ¼ cup olive oil (more as needed) in a skillet over medium high heat. Add a clove of smashed garlic and let it sit for a couple minutes without browning. Remove garlic. Add cubed bread (about 6 thick slices cut into chunks) and toss around in the pan until golden brown and chewy/crispy. Drain on paper towels. Season with salt. If the blended soup looks too thick for you, just add an additional ½ cup or so of liquid. Nutritional yeast is not necessary for texture, but it adds a nice, salty, cheesy flavor and some extra vitamins, too.
