Creamy Broccoli Turmeric Soup

Ingredients

1 Tbsp cocnut oil

1/2 c diced onion

1 stalk celery, diced

1 1/2 tsp salt

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tsp tumeric

1 large head broccoli, cut into florets

1 bay leaf

5 cups broth

1/4 tsp fresh ginger grated

1/8 tsp cayenne pepper

1/8 tsp fresh ground pepper

1 avocado

Melt coconut oil in a large pot. Add diced onions and celery and sprinkle with salt.  Cook until soft, about 4 minutes.

Add garlic and tumeric and continue to stir.  Add broccoli, bay leaf, stock, ginger, cayenne, and pepper.  Cover and cook until broccoli is tender.

After soup is done cooking add the pitted and peeled avocado and either use immersion blender or put in a regular blender.  oops, dont forget the bay leaf has to come out before you blend.

This is really really good but I think it may turn brown if there are leftovers. I also had a kind of small head of broccoli so I sliced up the stem and added it in the frist step with the onion and celery.
