  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 1 zucchini, diced
  • 1 cup green beans, chopped
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 can coconut milk (full fat for creaminess)
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish
  • Optional: a squeeze of lemon for brightness

Instructions

  1. Sauté aromatics: In a large pot, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until fragrant and translucent, about 3-5 minutes.
  2. Add vegetables: Stir in diced carrots, chopped celery, and zucchini. Cook for another 5 minutes to develop flavors and soften the vegetables slightly.
  3. Pour in broth and spices: Add 4 cups of vegetable broth, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer for 15 minutes or until all vegetables are tender.
  4. Blend for creaminess: Use an immersion blender to blend the soup directly in the pot until smooth and creamy, or carefully transfer to a blender and blend until smooth, then return to the pot.
  5. Add coconut milk: Stir in 1 can of coconut milk to achieve that luscious, creamy texture. Let it warm through for 5 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
  6. Serve and garnish: Serve the hot vegan vegetable soup garnished with fresh parsley and a squeeze of lemon for added brightness. Enjoy this easy, comforting, and healthy dish!
