Creamy broccoli chowder with herb crusted cod. The perfect creamy and cozy soup for moody spring days. Paleo, dairy free, and whole30. Can be made ahead and frozen!
Major YUM factor over here!
I have eaten this chowder cold.
I have eaten this chowder warm.
Packed it for lunches.
Made it for dinner.
It’s just all around good. Let’s dig in!
Serious broccoli chowder cravings over here. Alllll week.
I had to solve this creamy broccoli chowder craving issue.
This soup turned out to be stunningly delicious and a combination of everything I had in my fridge.?
The addition of the herb crusted cod was a last minute decision, but oh so worthy of recognition! It was the perfect pair to this creamy vegetable soup! Optional, but highly recommended!
Top your bowl off with a sprinkle of parsley and drizzle of olive oil, and you have yourself one good bowl of soup that pairs perfect with a good book, your wool socks, and cozy chair.

Anyone else affected by the weather? Moods, energy, zest for life. It all seems to be influenced by the weather.
Oh yeah, and cravings. Like creamy chowder when it’s gloomy and rainy.
This week has been packed with drizzly skies and 24 hour of wet a day. Hence: soup. It’s nourishing, blissful, and a major bright spot on these rainy days.

Ingredients
Soup
- 4 cups broccoli chopped in a food processor
- 2 cups chicken broth or vegetable broth
- 1 1/2 cups almond milk
- 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 small onion minced
- 2 tablespoons garlic herb seasoning to taste
- 1 teaspoon sea salt to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 4-6 tablespoons tapioca flour
Fish
- 1 piece cod cut into 1" cubes
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- garlic herb seasoning to taste
Instructions
- In a soup pot combine ingredients (except tapioca flour) for soup until hot, then sprinkle tapioca flour over soup and stir continuously until thickened. Do not over cook from this point on, because it will become too thick from the tapioca flour.
- Blend in a blender until soup reaches desired consistency.
- Toss cod with seasoning to taste and cook on a cast iron skillet with a drizzle of olive oil for 3-5 minutes until it flakes apart with a fork. Serve with soup.

Do you blend all the ingredients together at the end, or how is it that creamy? Also, would coconut milk thicken it up decently to make it lower in carbs? Tapioca flour always makes my blood sugar spike, and my carb cravings roar.
Hi Rene, looks like I forgot to note that step, haha! Sorry about that. I just updated it. Yes, you blend everything. 🙂
hiya kaylie, would there be a substitute for tapioca flour that i can use? does normal flour work the same?
cheers!
p.s. tried out your sweet potato brownies recipe today and wow.. just wow.
Hi Lauren, you can sub tapioca flour for arrowroot flour. 🙂
