Vegan & Iron-Enriched Broccoli Stalk Soup

Vegan & Iron-Enriched Broccoli Stalk Soup

Take a page out of @zestfulkitchen's book and save those broccoli stalks!! They lend perfectly to a creamy base for this luxuriously silky textured soup. The best part is that it tastes like it has cream but is actually dairy free!⁠⁠

DIRECTIONS:⁠

Heat butter and oil in a large Dutch oven or stock pot over medium-high. Add broccoli stalks, potatoes, onions, and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Sauté vegetables until beginning to soften, about 8 minutes.⁠

Stir in broth, Dijon, and zest, bring to a boil. Then add in the Lucky Iron Fish/Leaf and continue boiling for 10 minutes. ⁠

After 10 minutes, the soup is iron enriched and the vegetables should be tender. Turn off heat. Remove the Fish/Leaf and wash it.⁠

Purée soup with an immersion blender, or purée in batches in a standard blender. Stir in lemon juice, lemon zest, and season with salt and pepper.⁠

**If you want to make croutons from scratch, just toss roughly torn pieces of bread in olive oil and spices of your choice. Bake at 400˙F for 7 minutes until crispy.
