Homemade Vegan "Cream" of Broccoli Soup

I felt like some homemade soup for dinner to warm me up from this snowy whether and I decided to make "cream" of broccoli. It turned out really well, and if anyone has a Vita-mix its super easy, but not mandatory. This soup is full of free vegetables and contains protein without any animal ingredients.

What you need:

3-4 cups Broccoli

2 cups soy milk

1/2 cup onion

vegetable bouillon cube

2-3 potatoes (depending how thick you want it)

1 cup water

What you do:

Peel potatoes and boil until cooked

Boil broccoli until cooked

Chop onion

Dissolve bouillon cube into water

Heat soy milk to a boil

Combine all ingredients in blender or Vita-mix and blend until almost smooth (if you don't have a blender you will need a handheld mixer to puree the ingredients)

Enjoy!

So ok... this soup may look like something a dog would bring up, but C'MON... its broccoli soup and broccoli is green. The canned stuff only has a creamy colour to it because its more like cream soup with some broccoli in it. My broccoli soup is the REAL deal.

Vegetable Pot Pie

I made a delicious veggie pot pie tonight for dinner. My boyfriend (not vegan) really liked it too.

What you need:

Crust
1 cup Bisquick
1/2 cup soy milk

Filling
2 potatoes
1/2 cup onion
2 cups frozen mixed vegetables of your choice
1 can mushroom gravy
2 tbsp olive oil

What you do:

Chop up onion and potato and saute in frying pan with oil until onion is soft and gold.
Add frozen veggie mix and gravy to onion and potato, simmer for 10 mins.
Mix bisquick and soy milk.
Transfer filling into oven safe dish and cover with bisquick mix
Bake at 400 degrees for 40 mins

It was delicious, hearty, and vegan. YUM!! (Sorry there is no pic)
