Tips for the Perfect Spookydle Soup:
- Pasta Perfection: Don’t overcook the pasta! Add it during the last minute or two of cooking, or serve it as a garnish to prevent it from becoming mushy.
- Spice it Up: Adjust the amount of cumin, turmeric, and paprika to your liking. A pinch of cayenne pepper can add a nice kick!
- Creamy Dreamy: For an even creamier soup, you can add a tablespoon of coconut cream at the end.
- Immersion Blender is Key: An immersion blender makes pureeing the soup a breeze, but a regular blender works too (just be careful when blending hot liquids!).
Is this soup vegetarian/vegan?
Yes! This recipe is naturally vegetarian and vegan.
Can I substitute the broccoli?
Absolutely! Cauliflower or green beans would be great substitutes.
Can I make this soup ahead of time?
Yes, you can! Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave.
What if I don’t have an Instant Pot?
You can make this soup on the stovetop! Sauté the onions, garlic, and spices in a large pot, then add the remaining ingredients and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender.
Get ready to brew up some spooky fun with our Instant Pot Spookydle Soup! It’s a guaranteed crowd-pleaser that will add a touch of magic to your mealtime.
