10 Spice Soup (vegan/vegetarian)

8-10 Servings

 

This soup is on the spicy side, but you can always tame it down by using less 10 Spice blend. 

 

1-15 oz. chickpeas, drained and rinsed (or any favorite) 

3/4 cup raw cashews, soaked overnight, then blend with 1 cup vegetable broth

5 cups vegetable broth (in addition)

1 Tbsp. olive oil

3 garlic cloves, minced

1 sweet onion, diced

salt

——————————————-

3 medium carrots, sliced

1 red bell pepper, in 1/2” pieces

1 1/2 cup yams and/or potatoes, 1” cubed

2 stalks celery, sliced

28 oz. diced fire-roasted tomatoes

2 bay leaves

1 1/2 Tbsp. 10 Spice Blend*

salt/pepper

1-2 cups of spinach or kale

 

Pour the olive oil in a large kettle and saute the onion 5 minutes and then add the garlic. Stir in the chickpeas, cashew blended with broth and the additional 5 cups of broth.
