Ingredients
-
5 cups chopped broccoli florets and stalks
-
1 onion, chopped into 1-inch pieces
-
3 cloves garlic, peeled
-
2 tablespoons olive oil
-
3 cups vegetable broth
-
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
-
¾ teaspoon lemon pepper, or more as needed
-
crushed red pepper flakes to taste
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Place broccoli, onion, garlic, and olive oil in a large bowl and toss to coat evenly. Place on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
-
Roast vegetables until soft, 30 to 35 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes. Remove from oven. Chop 1/4 cup of broccoli florets; set aside for garnish.
-
Combine remaining vegetables with vegetable broth, cream cheese, and lemon pepper in a high-powered blender or food processor in batches. Puree soup until smooth.
-
Pour soup into a saucepan over medium-low heat until warmed through, about 5 minutes. Season with additional lemon pepper to taste. Ladle into bowls. Garnish with reserved chopped broccoli and crushed red pepper.
Cook's Notes:
A 1 1/2 pound head of broccoli yields about 5 cups of chopped florets and stems.
Chop broccoli stalks no thicker than 1/4-inch to ensure the pieces cook in the allotted time.
