I think that I am so over this summer, my body is starting to crave the comfort foods of autumn. My family raised their eyebrows last week when I made a big pot of chili and expected them to eat it for dinner on a 90 degree day. They knew better than to say anything, but I don't think they were too pleased with my dinner choice that day. This week I was really wanting some broccoli and cheddar soup, but I also wanted to be a decent human and not subject them to hot foods on sweltering days. Still wanting soup though, I decided to scour my trusty friend's recipe index over at Golden Blossom Honey for a cold soup that might get me over the cravings, and just so happened to stumble upon a little gem of a recipe. This Curried Broccoli Soup is the most perfect soup that can be served without any issues during the warmer months of the year when soup isn't at the forefront of anyone's thoughts when it comes to meal options.

 

Even on the hottest days, you can serve up this soup without any complaints. It's light, cool, and refreshing, so it won't leave you feeling weighed down, which is a blessing in itself when the sun is trying to melt everything in its path. This is a sweet and savory soup, so it's a 2 for 1 where flavor profiles are concerned. Since it is pureed, I would suggest this soup for lunch over dinner since it's not overly filling, or as an appetizer if you wanted to serve it as a dinner course. It would pair nicely with a slice of crusty bread, or even with some garlic toast. I realize that we're more than halfway through the hellish heat of summer days, but it's not over yet, so you're going to want to save this recipe to get you through the last stretch of heat before autumn approaches and we can move on to heartier comfort soups.
