This vegan broccoli cheese soup is super tasty, simple, low in fat and good for your body. It's the perfect lunch recipe for the fall and winter months.
Fall is pretty warm here in Seville, but if the weather is not too hot (over 85ºF or 30ºC), we eat soups, no matter the time of the year.
We've adapted our vegan cheese (which is one of the most popular recipes on the blog) to make an oil-free, low fat, vegan version of the classic broccoli cheese soup and it's so delightful.
Some people don't blend the broccoli florets and others add more veggies to the soup, but this is our favorite way to make this recipe. If you prefer chunky soups, don't blend the broccoli or add other steamed or boiled veggies.

My husband used to love the non-version of this soup. Can you tell me what kind of potatoes you recommend for this soup?
