Raw broccoli soup



Ingredients

1 1/2 cups broccoli (chopped)
1/2 cup cashews
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
3/4 cup water
1/2 tablespoon of honey
1/2 tablespoon agave nectar (or honey)
1/2 cup more broccoli - finely chopped (reserve - do not blend)

Preparation Time

5 min

Total Time

5 min

Serving Size

1 serving

Shelf Life

Eat immediately

Equipment


Directions

1. Add all of the raw broccoli soup recipe ingredients (except the last 1/2 cup of broccoli) to your high-speed blender.
2. Blend in your high-speed blender. Start blending on low and work your way all the way up to high. Blend for a very long time so that the soup recipe warms up nicely from the speed of your blender.
3. Place your additional 1/2 cup chopped broccoli into a bowl. Pour blended broccoli soup mixture on top of the chopped broccoli. Mix gently with a spoon. (So you will have a creamy broc soup with some floating broc chunks, capiche?)
4. Serve immediately. For an added touch, garnish with thinly sliced avocado.
This raw broccoli soup recipe makes enough for one big bowl or two very small appetizer cups.

's Thoughts

As you probably know, I have a lot of raw soup recipes.
My favourite raw soup recipes are probably raw corn chowder and raw cream of celery soup or raw tomato soup - so if you have never made raw soup before try starting with those!
However, I was recently craving raw broccoli soup, and I made this simple recipe. It did the trick to satisfy my broccoli craving.  But obviously you should only make this raw broccoli soup recipe if you actually like the taste of raw broccoli. :)
