- 3 tablespoons vegan butter
- 1/3 cup yellow onion diced
- 1 tablespoon garlic minced
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 5 cups vegan chicken-style broth
- 28 ounces shredded hash browns thawed
- 1 1/2 cups broccoli chopped
- 1 cup oat milk
- 3 cups vegan cheddar cheese shredded
In a large soup pot over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Add onion and cook, stirring frequently for 3 minutes, until softened. Add the garlic and continue cooking for an additional 30 seconds.
Whisk in the flour, Italian seasoning, and black pepper; the mixture will be thick. Gradually add the chicken-style broth, whisking continuously to remove any clumps.
Stir in the hash browns and broccoli. Bring to a boil then reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 10 minutes, until heated through.
Add the milk and cheese. Keeping the heat on a low simmer, cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the cheese is melted. Adjust seasoning to taste and serve hot.
