For the Soup
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 large yellow onion
- 4 cloves garlic
- ½ tsp kosher salt I use Morton's
- 2½ tsp dried oregano
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- 12 oz frozen broccoli florets
- ½ cup frozen chopped spinach
- ¼ cup raw cashews
- 2 cups vegan chicken broth or veggie broth
- ½ cup water
Cook
Add the olive oil to the pot and set to medium heat. Then add the chopped onion and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Next, add the garlic to the pot - don't bother chopping it, just throw it in whole! - and then add oregano, salt and pepper and sauté for another 3 minutes. Add a splash of water to the pan as needed to prevent it from drying out. Then add the frozen broccoli, frozen spinach, cashews, broth, and water. Bring to a boil, then turn off the heat and let cool for 15 minutes.

Ingredients
Serves 4
4 6in round loaves of bread
1.5 tsp garlic granules
2 tsp dried Italian herbs
1/2 tsp kosher salt
3 tbsp olive oil
4 tbsp vegan parmesan cheese (optional)
Slice off the top third of each loaf then remove the inside of the loaves to create two bowls.
Combine the spices and olive oil in a small dish then brush all over the inside of the bread bowl. Sprinkle the inside and the "lid" with with vegan parmesan cheese if desired (optional) Then bake at 400 degrees until nicely toasted and crispy around the edges. About 5-8 minutes.
Note: if you opt for fresh garlic instead of granules, you may want to wrap the bread in aluminum foil so the garlic doesn't burn in the oven.
