Dairy-Free Crockpot Broccoli Soup recipe made healthy! It’s delicious, it’s creamy, and it is chock-full of potatoes and broccoli! Best way to a hearty, warm, and filling meal.
(Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free and Vegan friendly)
My love for potatoes runs deep. I never really understood how much of a potato gal I was until now. I’m talking simple, plain microwaved potatoes with a tad bit of sour cream. That’s it. My perfect go-to weekly meal.
Yes, I will say it again: I love potatoes! They are soooo versatile.
Potatoes are in our dairy-free alfredo sauce (yes, those perfect potatoes are in there), plus you can grill them, mash them, and don’t even get me started with that amazing potato starch. You know how much I lovvvvveeee potato starch. // It was in my birthday cake last week.
My love for potatoes definitely runs deep, not just because they taste amazing, but because they are packed with potassium, along with other amazing nutrients.
We are taking the versatility of potatoes into a hearty, fall-loving soup direction today with this Dairy-Free Crockpot Broccoli Potato Soup.
It is warming, it is comforting, and it is everything our bodies need.
It’s mind-blowing how many deliciously rich in potassium potatoes are in this crockpot potato soup. // No complaints coming from me.
This soup is one we make quite frequently in our house. It’s a “throw it all in there, set it and forget it” type of soup. #AMAZING
I never can get enough potatoes. I was practically raised on them. I never knew that most people don’t go through a bag of potatoes every week. // Right? This is not common?
Oh well, at least you can get on board with this perfectly creamy Dairy-Free Crockpot Broccoli Potato Soup.

sounds delicious! Do you have a brand of dairy-free “cheese” that you like? I haven’t tried any yet haha, a little scared to tbh
Don’t be scared! 🙂 So I’ll be honest, I haven’t tried THAT many of them. I’m not lactose intolerant, sometimes though my tummy just needs a break from dairy (especially after I’ve been glutened). The one I buy most often on my dairy breaks is Daiya, but once in a while I’ll switch to Go Veggie. Both are decent, granted not the real thing, so when my tummy can do it I go for the real sharp cheddar. 😉
FYI….Go Veggie is not dairy free…it contains casein which is from milk…I only know because my daughter is a very strict vegan :>)
Mmm perhaps you are referring to their lactose-free products?? Then in that case you are correct they are not vegan. BUT Go Veggie actually has a Vegan product line that are indeed vegan and dairy-free. They’ve made a Vegan version of all their products. Perhaps that will help for future recipes! :))
Can this be frozen or does it break up like a traditional potato soup does?
Those look so creamy and delicious.
This looks delicious!
I love anything with potatoes and broccoli and cheese are a classic combo! This soup is really tasty and a great meal. I definitely suggest some crusty bread to go alongside.
Do you know how to adjust the cook time on this for a pressure cooker rather than a crockpot?
can I substitute vegetable broth for chicken broth?
Yes 100% 🙂
one question: Most soups with trhese ingredients put them thru some sort of a blender at the end, but this one does the blending and then cooks the broccoli. Wouldn’t you be blending again after the broccoli is cooked?
Thanks!

We personally found that the broccoli broke down enough for our liking. If you would like to have it more pureed then go ahead and do so at the end. 🙂
