Soup season is FINALLY upon us, and I couldn’t be more excited! Yes, this is coming from the gal who’s obsessed with muffins and cookies. And I’m bringing you one of my favorites. A creamy, hearty soup made with carrots, butternut squash, onions, potato, and some simple seasonings.
The soup itself is paleo, Whole 30 compliant, and vegan. I added chopped sweet Italian chicken sausage from True Story Foods as a garnish on the top, and it really took this dish to the next level. But not to worry, if sausage isn’t your thing, you can omit all together, or add greens, pumpkin seeds, or even some quinoa. The possibilities are endless!
Enjoy this recipe, and if you make it, don’t forget to tag me @kalejunkie on Instagram and use hashtag #kalejunkie so I can see!
