Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 carrots, peeled and diced
- 2 celery stalks, diced
- 1 cup chopped potatoes
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 can (13.5 oz) full-fat coconut milk
- 1/2 cup nutritional yeast
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the minced garlic, diced carrots, and diced celery. Cook for another 5-7 minutes, until the vegetables start to soften.
- Add the chopped potatoes and vegetable broth to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until all vegetables are tender.
- Stir in the full-fat coconut milk, nutritional yeast, and dried thyme. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Using an immersion blender, carefully blend the soup until it reaches your desired creamy consistency. Alternatively, transfer batches of the soup to a regular blender and blend until smooth.
- Return the creamy vegan vegetable soup to the pot, if using a regular blender, and heat through.
- Serve the cozy creamy vegan vegetable soup hot, garnished with fresh chopped parsley.
