1 tsp garlic powder

1 box firm silken tofu (shelf stable, not the kind you get in the refrigerated section)

Place all ingredients except water, tofu, broccoli, tabasco and nutritional yeast into slow cooker. Pour enough water into slow cooker to cover vegetables and seasonings. Reserve the remainder of the water. Set on low for 4-5 hours. Add tofu and nutritional yeast. Using a stick blender, process soup until smooth. If you don't have a stick, pour batches of soup into food processor or blender to achieve smooth consistency. Add broccoli. Add remainder of water until it reaches near the top of the crock pot. Cook until soup is heated. Each serving is approximately 1/2 cup (assuming you used all 6 cups of water) Number of Servings: 12Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user EASTERCAT.
