Gluten-Free Spicy Ginger Vegetable Soup Recipe
It’s officially springtime but some nights are still rather chilly and, in some parts of the country, are even downright cold. When your palate is ready for spring but your body still wants something comforting, a nice veggie soup, like this Gluten-Free Spicy Ginger Vegetable Soup recipe, is where it’s at.
This recipe is chock full of veggies – broccoli, carrots, bell peppers, tomatoes, edamame, spinach, and fresh herbs. To add a depth of flavor and some thickness, I add SunButter, a nut-free sunflower seed spread that can be used in place of peanut butter in recipes. It just really elevates this soup to the next level. Plus, the soup takes on a slightly Asian undertone from the ginger and chili garlic sauce.
Flavorful and fresh, this soup is sure to get you in the springtime spirit while warming your body on a chilly night!
