This soup is really thick, making it great for dipping toast into it. I also like to take it out of the “soup” category by tossing in cooked chickpeas and serving it on a plate with a baby spinach salad. Other perks?

Pho is a popular Vietnamese dish traditionally consisting of noodles and meat. Most vegetarian versions of Pho simply substitute the meat with seitan or tofu, but I decided to replace the “meat” with vegetables. I used the broth in this recipe as my base. It’s plenty delicious on its own so you can just add [...]

Everything in this beautiful soup was purchased at my local farmers market - including the broth, which was made from last week’s leftover veggies! The soup is perfect for active summer days, you can enjoy a full bowl without feeling weighed down. This soup also uses parsley as a main flavor profile - a wonderful [...]
