I've been experimenting again.

My sweet hubby surprised me today by taking an unexpected day off, which means my plans of studying are out the window. So what should I do? Feed him, of course!

It's been cold and I've been hungry for soup. I decided to experiment and create a recipe for a broccoli - cheese soup. The result had him raving about how good it is and going back for seconds.

I'd say this experiment was a success.

INGREDIENTS:

I use all organic ingredients:

• 1 cup raw cashews

• 2 cups water

• 2 cups almond milk

• 3T nutritional yeast

• 2 garlic cloves (can use minced garlic or garlic powder)

• 4 cups broccoli

• I lb riced cauliflower

• ¼ cup diced onion

• (¼ cup plain yogurt - optional)

• Seasonings to taste: Himalayan salt, pepper, garlic powder, cumin, turmeric, chili powder, Seasoning Blend (I use Kirklands Signature Organic No-Salt Seasoning)

DIRECTIONS:

• Put cashews, water, milk, nutritional yeast, garlic and seasonings in a high power blender. Blend on high until smooth. Add broccoli and pulse until fine.

• In a pot, add riced cauliflower and onion and heat until tender (can add ¼ cup water). Then add soup mixture from blender, (optional yogurt) and season to taste.

• Heat and enjoy!
