Well, it?s officially winter, you guys! I mean, it?s been officially winter for a while now, but here in Atlanta at least, winter really rolled in over the past few weeks. We had our first freeze, and I think the days of shorts weather are probably behind us until at least mid-March.
I am a total baby about the cold. I grew up in South Florida, and even after over a decade living in a town that has actual seasons, my blood is still pretty thin. The cold, dark days of winter are a shock to my system every year, and a steamy bowl of soup is like a little hug that makes it just a bit easier for my body to deal with the constant chill.
So many soup recipes ? even vegetable soups! ? rely on bacon, meat, or meat-based broths as ?seasoning,? but there are plenty of hearty, tasty, stick-to-the-ribs vegan soups that are just as tasty! These are my favorite vegan soup recipes to get me through the thick of winter:
1. Tofu and Kale Lemongrass Soup ? The citrusy kick in this Asian-inspired soup is perfect for beating the winter blues!
2. Vegan Cream of Mushroom Soup ? Rich, creamy, and earthy. This soup is total comfort food.
3. Healing Miso Soup ? Another Asian soup! I love how versatile this recipe is. Really, you can use this base with any veggies you have on hand.
4.?Perfect Split Pea Soup ? If you can?t find the vegan ham that she used, about a teaspoon of liquid smoke will do the trick in its place!
5. Bistro Broccoli Chowder ? A vegan take on broccoli cheese soup. You won?t miss the dairy!
6. Gingered Sweet Potato and Coconut Soup ? I love a pureed soup, and the ginger gives it such a nice kick.
7. Crock Pot Callaloo ? Hearty callaloo is so delicious, and making it in the crock pot means you can cook up a batch without a lot of work.
8. Middle Eastern Red Lentil Soup ? This deeply seasoned soup is packed with yummy lentils!
9. North African Chickpea and Kale Soup ? If you don?t have kale, you can use other dark, leafy greens like collards or turnip greens in this recipe.
10. -Spiced Pumpkin Soup ? Just replace the butter in this recipe with Earth Balance or olive oil to make it totally vegan!
