Ingredients
- 1 batch Homemade Tofu Chorizo, recommended Or sub 1 package store-bought vegan chorizo such as No Evil Foods or Trader Joe's (TJ's tends to overpower).
- 2 medium yellow onions, chopped
- 8 cloves garlic, minced
- 16 ounces cremini or white button mushrooms, sliced
- 3 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon cayenne Adjust to desired level of spice and depending on how spicy your chorizo is.
- 3 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 8 cups vegetable broth
- up to 1 teaspoon sea salt, depending on saltiness of broth
- black pepper
- 1 ¾ cups cooked chickpeas or 1 (15 oz) can rinsed and drained
- 1 small bunch of kale, curly or Tuscan, thick stems removed, chopped
Garnish:
- plain vegan yogurt Optional but highly recommended.
Instructions
- Preheat a large soup pot over medium heat. Cook the onions, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 8 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 10 minutes.
- Add tomato paste, smoked paprika, cayenne, nutritional yeast, and chorizo, and stir to combine. Cook 1 to 2 minutes to heat the chorizo and allow flavors to mingle. Add potatoes, broth, salt, and pepper, and bring to a boil.
- Add chickpeas and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook for about 15 minutes or until potatoes are fork tender. Stir in kale, remove from heat, and let sit for a few minutes.
- Serve with a generous dollop of vegan yogurt. We loved this soup with homemade cashew yogurt, but store-bought yogurt or sour cream is also fine, as long as it's 100% plain and unsweetened.
Notes
- Store leftover soup in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Can also be frozen for extended storage.
- Nutrition information is an estimate and will vary depending on exact ingredients/brands used. Based on 6 servings per batch of soup.
