Broccoli and Potato Soup

This great tasting soup is so easy to put together and one we really enjoy. I like to toss abit of shredded cheddar cheese in mine but my hubby prefers his as is.

INGREDIENTS

1 pound broccoli florets

1 pound potatoes, peeled and chopped

1 onion, chopped

6 cups GF vegetable broth

2 tablespoons butter

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon dried thyme

1/4 teaspoon dried basil

Fresh ground pepper to taste

Salt to taste

DIRECTIONS

Melt the butter in a large pot over medium-high heat; add the onions and potatoes and cook for 5 minutes.

Add the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium and simmer for 30 minutes.

Puree the soup with an immersion blender.

If you do not have an immersion blender, purée in a regular blender in batches by removing the centre piece of lid before securing it, cover with a clean towel so it doesn't splatter.

Ladle into bowls.
Enjoy!
