    As spring is approaching I am still craving all of the soup recipes. In my opinion soup is a year around dish. The benefit of the seasons changing is that you can swap out the flavors with seasonal ingredients. This vegan creamy mint pea soup is perfect for spring.

    This soup is so simple to make and yet so delicious. It is packed with plant protein thanks to the peas. Cashews add healthy fats and creaminess to this soup. The mint and lemon make this soup taste fresh and springy. However, if you aren't into mint you can sub in your favorite herb. I know you will love this soup!

    Let's get into the recipe.

    This makes 2-3 servings of soup

    • 1 yellow or sweet onion - diced
    • 3 stalks celery - roughly chopped
    • 4 cloves garlic - minced
    • 1 ~15 ounce bag frozen peas
    • 4 cups vegetable broth (from 1 32 ounce container)
    • ⅓ cup cashews (sub coconut cream or omit, adds creaminess)
    • ½ teaspoon cumin
    • ½ teaspoon paprika
    • ½-1 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
    • black pepper to taste
    • juice from ½ lemon
    • ⅓ cup chopped mint leaves (from 1 small bunch mint)

    1. Heat oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add onions and cook for 5 minutes. Add celery and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 3 minutes.
    2. Add all remaining soup ingredients to the pot.  Bring to a simmer and cook for 10-15 minutes, until everything is cooked through.
