Units
Scale
- 1 9-10 Oz Package of Vegan Tortellini
- 4-5 cups Vegetable Broth
- 1 Medium Yellow Onion, Diced
- 2 to 3 Medium Carrots, Peeled and Sliced
- 1 Tablespoon Minced Garlic (About 3 to 5 Cloves)
- 1 15 Ox Can Crushed Tomatoes
- 2 cups Baby Spinach, Packed Down
- 1 cup Cashew Cream
- 4-6 oz Sun-Dried Tomatoes in Oil
- 1 Teaspoon Italian Seasoning Blend
- 1-2 Tablespoons Oil
- Salt and Fresh Ground Black Pepper, To Taste
- Vegan Parmesan, Optional Topping
Instructions
- Sauté Onion and Carrots: In a large pot, add the the oil and let it come to heat on medium-high. Once it shimmers, add the carrots and onions. Once the onions become translucent add the sun-dried tomatoes and cook until the onions have browned.
- Add the Garlic and Italian Seasonings: Add the minced garlic and Italian herbs and cook them briefly for 30 seconds. Be careful because they can burn quite easily!
- Add the Broth and Tomatoes: Gently pour in the vegan broth and crushed tomatoes into the pot. Give the soup a good stir and then let it come to a boil.
- Simmer: Once it boils, turn the heat to medium low and let it simmer for 10 to 15 minutes.
- Add the Spinach, Tortellini, and Cashew Cream: Add these items to the pot, stir again, and cook for about 2-3 minutes more. You want the spinach to wilt and the vegan tortellini to soften.
- Serve: Add your soup to a bowl. Add your vegan parmesan and enjoy! This would be especially delicious served with our Vegan Garlic Bread or Vegan Focaccia.
Notes
- Note 1: We used Kite Hill vegan tortellini, but you can use homemade in the same way!
- Note 2: If using sun-dried tomatoes that don't have oil, you will need to be more careful when cooking them. With out the oil, they will burn much more easily. You may need to add a little more oil as well.
- Note 3: For other additions, consider adding fresh basil, fresh parsley, and Crispy Tofu or Vegan Sausage.
