  • Instructions

1. Sauté the Aromatics

  • Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
  • Add onion and garlic, sautéing until fragrant and translucent (about 2–3 minutes).
  • If using ginger or turmeric, add it now for an extra boost of flavor and healing.

2. Add Vegetables

  • Add the chopped broccoli, cauliflower, and potato to the pot. Stir well to coat the vegetables in the aromatics.

3. Add Broth

  • Pour in the vegetable broth or water, ensuring the vegetables are covered.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15–20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.

4. Blend the Soup

  • Use an immersion blender to puree the soup directly in the pot, or transfer it in batches to a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  • Stir in the milk for added creaminess.
