Veggie Cheddar Soup (vegan)

Veggie Chedda

don’t worry, it’s vegan!

I found a few recipes that had the framework I was looking for on how to go about this but I decided to really make it my own. I added so many vegetables and can’t wait to try it with a bunch more! I don’t have measurements because a lot of the time I just wing it. If you like a more stewy soup I would use less water. I probably used about 4 cups water and an entire carton of the vegetable broth for the base because I wanted it to be thicker and really rely on the vegetables to make it hearty.

This was completely vegan and one of my favorite soups I know I’ll be coming back to again this winter. When I was having it as leftovers it paired perfectly with sprouted whole grain bread and some vegan cheese sprinkled on top and broiled for a faux open face grilled cheese!

Can’t wait to hear what you guys think! DM me with questions :)
