Broccoli and peas provide fibre and immune-supporting nutrients, while silken tofu creates a naturally creamy texture and delivers plant-based protein.

Method
Gather and prepare your ingredients.
Add the broccoli, peas and stock to a large saucepan and simmer over medium heat for 5–10 minutes, until the broccoli is fully defrosted and soft.
Stir through the nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, parsley and tofu. Season to taste.
Remove from the heat and transfer to a blender, or use a hand blender, and blitz until smooth.
Return the soup to the pan and heat through. Serve in bowls, swirl through the tahini and top with toasted seeds.

I appreciated the high protein in it and liked it. After blending it was really creamy, a plus. I used a can of cannelloni beans instead of the peas, and more of the spices and nutritional yeast.
Brilliant soup very satisfying and very easy to make with frozen ingredients
I hope this feeds 4 otherwise it only gives 16 gms of protein per serving. Like others I used fresh broccoli, and guessed at the amount of fresh onion and garlic - maybe should use more. It is a great winter soup- warming and comforting. Glad it used as whole pack of silken tofu as I wouldn’t know what to do with the rest as it only lasts 72 hours, about the same as the soup in the fridge.
An easy, nutritious soup for autumn and winter. All the better for using frozen vegetables making it a cheap dish to make on a tight budget.
I used frozen kale instead of broccoli and it was delicious and filling.
So easy to make. I had everything I needed in the fridge. I would encourage others to cook. So yummy
Lovely recipe. Made it with cauliflower second time around and worked well.
Wow so easy! Had bag of fresh veg broccoli, carrots & cauliflower so used this. Used immersion blender. Fantastic soup made in 15 mins. Will try next time with frozen veg
Really tasty soup and easy to make.
Didn't have enough broccoli or peas so did half the quantity of those and other half cauliflower and edamame beans. Fed 6 with 4 portions and all devoured it!
Nourishing and wholesome if a little bland. I added tablespoon grated pecorino to my bowl for more oomph!
A delicious soup that's easy and quick to make. The portion sizes are very generous.
I really like this soup and the simplicity of it is great. Quick meal in a short period of time.
Loved this soup - so easy to prepare yet so tasty. It came out really well. Another for the regulars list!
I made substitutions based on what I had in the freezer...cabbage instead of broccoli, edamame instead of peas. A bit of leftover asparagus. It was very filling and delicious. I plan to try the recipe as is next time!
Very easy and quick to make.
Superb recipe, worked a treat. I needed a little more stock as it was slightly too thick, but other than that it was perfect. It will definitely be a staple in the coming winter months.
This soup was absolutely delicious. I used fresh broccoli as that is what was in the fridge along with fresh onion and garlic. I didn't use the tahini as mine was solid and not runny. I feel that I could have used a little bit more vegetable stock and it says serves 2 but I think 4 is more like it!
The soup kept me full for ages which is never the case for me with soup. Maybe it's because it was the first time I've cooked with tofu. Will deffo cook again!
Lovely soup, I made it in my soup maker with fresh broccoli, frozen onions, frozen peas and a few frozen edamame beans that needed using up. I used white miso paste instead of nutritional yeast. Forgot the parsley but added nigella seeds, Will definitely make again, delicious.
Very easy but I found it a little bland. Will make again though
I ask added handful of spinich
This was delicious, I didnt have onion powder so added fresh chives. I also had some mint so added that too. I also blended the tahini in the soup rather than add on top at the end. Really delicious, I also didnt need to season with salt as the stock made it just the right amount of salty. Will definitely make again
So fast and easy...and really yummy. I used fresh onion and garlic because that's what I had on hand. I also used an immersion blender. The tahini and pumpkins seeds made it special!
Delicious. I didn't have enough peas so I substituted with 100g of frozen broad beans. Very easy and quick recipe.
Lovely silky soup, the tofu is a nice way to make it creamy whilst being healthy. I used a bit of frozen diced onions and white miso instead of yeast and it worked a treat. Will make again!
Delicious soup! Will definitely make again and try different veg. The tofu is a great way to add protein and fibre without overpowering the flavour of the veg. I used to thicken soups by adding a potato. This is an even healthier way to achieve this.
What a great recipe! I don’t understand the negative reviews that say it was too salty… did you read the part of the”season to taste”? Mine turned out delicious, I didn’t have tahini so I added a little lemon juice on my plate. I’m so happy with these recipes so far!! Thank you!! My family loved it as well!
Could be worst I guess. mine is a little salty.
this was so easy! minimal dishes when you make it with an immersion blender, super yummy
Yummy, satisfying and easy to make! I used fresh cauliflower since I didn’t have any frozen broccoli and it turned out great! I will certainly make this again.
Quick and tasty
I love this soup. I made it several times now. It is very filling and for me it is sufficent as a complete meal with gf pita bread and hummus.
A quick and nourishing lunch, with plenty of leftovers for later in the week. Loved it.
The flavour seemed overpoweringly like parsley - I couldn’t really taste much else. The soup also needed salt, but I guess it would depend on the broth used. The tahini and seeds were a nice add on.
So quick and easy to make, and very tasty!
It was amazing, easy to make and eat. Tasty. Just try it. I’ve did it with fresh broccoli cause I’ve had it in the fridge and also with bone broth.
Such a simple recipe, I’ve made this twice now. It taste good, but I did add some Sriracha the second time, as it was lacking something.
The soup was a little coarse, so I think I need to blend it for longer. I will try it again soon.
Tasty and very quick and easy. I added some chilli flakes to give it a flavour boost.
This is perfect for me. I love soups and salads and have the ingredientes at hand.
SUPER fast and easy. Ideal for those in a rush to make a very nutritious meal and/or those new to cooking.
As a beginner cook, I’m interested to learn what seasonings—other than salt—that others added to taste. I’ll definitely add this to my routine to get my broccoli servings in.
