Vegan Lasagna Soup

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Since we’re all craving comfort foods, I thought I would revisit one of my favorites and tweak it to feature more veggies. Since many are working with limited food options, soups are the way to go for endless reasons. You can make them in bulk, pack on the veggies, get 4 portions versus a single portion just eating it directly and the list goes on. 

 

When it comes to nostalgic comfort foods, we all gravitate towards lasagna! However, typical versions are packed with cheese, they aren’t as good days later, making them not the best option. Soups on the other hand are more effortless, more nutrient dense, and tastes just as good if not better days later when the flavors marry even more. 

 

That being said this new and improved vegan Lasagna Soup is going to be your new BFF, bc it will far exceed your expectations amidst all the chaos taking place. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


 

What’s fab about this soup, is everything! It’s quick, easy, affordable, features staple ingredients, packs tomatoes, carrots and a rich cashew cream sauce, had a hint of spice, mirrors the flavors of a traditional lasagna, the cashews add body and protein making it more filling, it can easily be made in bulk, and is one of my all time favorite soups!
