Creamy Vegetable Soup

There is nothing like a creamy hot soup in the fall/winter months. Getting all cozy on the couch with a bowl of warm goodness is so comforting,

Its hard to find a soup that has that creamy delicious texture without all the added fat and starches to bulk it up.  This soup is completely plant based. It contains no heavy creams, and still gives you that thick comforting texture you want in a soup.

The soup is pretty quick to whip up. However, I have to warn you there are a lot of steps that go into it. (Not like my usual recipes where you just throw everything in a bowl, cover and go).

This recipe should still take under 30min. I like to pre chop all the veggies so they are ready to go. Also to make things easier I buy frozen riced cauliflower and asparagus.
