Good morning! I was in need of a tasty soup recipe because I woke up today with 101.3 fever. I can’t remember the last time I had a fever. I am feeling just very lethargic these past two days. Hope the soup will help. I do know one thing, this soup took 30 minutes or so from start to finish. Quite impressive. I would describe this recipe as quite simple, doesn’t need to simmer on the stove for long and is perfect for a vegan, vegetable lover. The recipe is adapted from vegetarian times magazine.
