With soup season in full swing, we are loving all the cozy soup recipes for dinner. This Pistachio Pumpkin Soup and Slow Cooker Green & White Chicken Chili are some of our favorites lately! If you are looking for a vegan soup made in one pot…this Butternut Squash soup will satisfy all of your cravings.
Onions: Onions serve a great purpose in soups, which is why you may notice it in most soup recipes you make! Onions provide nice caramel flavors from sautéing them and also umami. Garlic: Did you know the more you cut or slice the garlic the more flavor it will give your soup? If you do not prefer the garlic flavor toss the whole garlic clove into the soup and you will hardly know there’s any garlic in the soup. For a stronger garlic flavor, cut the garlic clove into 8 slices so more allicin if formed. Carrots: I love the flavor carrots add to soup and plus, they provide a wonderful source of Vitamin A and fiber. Cauliflower: Most cauliflower soups are lacking in flavor, but this broccoli and cauliflower soup packs a flavorful punch. Cauliflower is a good source of fiber, Vitamin C and K. Broccoli: The Broccoli compliments the cheddar in this recipe so perfectly and is loaded with Vitamin C and antioxidants which is great for your immune system during the colder months. Other ingredients needed in this recipe: butter, chicken broth (or vegetable broth), flour, cheddar cheese, heavy whipping cream, red pepper chili flakes (optional), dried basil, salt and pepper.
