In a medium saucepan, heat the coconut oil, onion, and celery over medium heat. Let the vegetables sweat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, approximately 1 minute.
Add fennel, broccoli, thyme, vegetable stock and water. Bring to a boil, cover and reduce to a simmer for 12-15 minutes until the broccoli is very tender.
Remove from the heat and add parsley, lemon juice, salt, and miso. Blend with an immersion blender or in a blender.
Stir in the lentils; garnish with pine nuts or avocado chunks.
