- Heat, top with fresh or dried parsley, nutritional yeast, or cheese (if desired), and serve.
Notes
- Tomatoes: You can use whatever tomatoes you like. The recipe indicates large tomatoes, but you could of course roast Roma tomatoes or Cherry tomatoes and in a pinch you could use jarred tomatoes with or without roasting. The soup's texture will be different but still will be delicious. These fire-roasted tomatoes are a fantastic choice if you go the canned tomato route.
- Cashew Alternatives: Hemp seeds or macadamias are a great alternative for the cashews. I haven't tried them yet, but they should work out just fine.
