Low-Carb Broccoli Lemon Parmesan Soup

Tuck into this inviting bowl of simply made yet delicious broccoli soup.  We make this without any flour or added thickeners.  Just broccoli, almond milk, whipping cream, and cheese.  A healthy squeeze of lemon juice adds the perfect amount of brightness.  Feel free to make this with fresh florets or even frozen broccoli.

You’ll just need a blender to puree half of the soup.  You could also use a stick blender, just be sure to leave some chunks of broccoli intact.  This soup is great served with pesto crackers.  If you want to use it as a side instead, then divide it into smaller portions and serve with our lemony chicken thighs!
