One-Pot Creamy Vegetable Soup

Oh so comforting One Pot Creamy Vegetable Soup. Loaded with fresh herbs, tender veggies and paired with delicious bread.

Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp neutral oil, I used olive oil
  • 4 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 medium white onion, chopped
  • 3 medium carrots, chopped
  • 4 stalks of celery, chopped
  • ½ cup corn, I used frozen corn
  • 1 cup peas, I used frozen peas
  • 3 Tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 4 cups of veggie broth
  • 1/3 cup all- purpose flour, substitute with gluten-free flour
  • 1/3 cup dairy-free butter
  • 1 cup of unsweetened dairy-free milk, I used soy milk
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1/2 tsp fresh rosemary
  • 1/2 tsp fresh oregano
  • 1/2 tsp fresh thyme
  • 1 cup of chickpeas or white beans, optional
  • Directions
  • Heat a large pot on medium heat. Once warm, add the oil, onions, carrots, celery, garlic, and salt. Cook for 5 minutes or until the onions are translucent.
  • Add the  butter to the pot. Once it starts to melt combine the flour and mix covering the  vegetables in flour. This roux mixture will be thick and sticky.
  • Slowly add the vegetable broth, pepper, oregano, thyme, and rosemary and mix until well combined.
  • Stir the soup frequently until the soup comes to a gentle boil. As the soup heats up you will start to see the soup thicken. Make sure to keep stirring so the soup does not burn.
  • Combine the peas, corn, nutritional yeast, chickpeas, and milk to the pot. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes on low heat or until the peas and corn have warmed.
  • Divide soup into bowls and serve.
  • Leftovers can be kept in the refrigerator in an airtight container for 3 days.
