10 Vegetarian Soup Recipes

Looking for the best vegetarian soup recipes? I’ve got you covered!

On a cold, wet and miserable day, I really don’t think there’s anything better than warming your cockles with a steaming hot bowl of homemade soup and a big ol’ chunk of crusty bread.

I’m not a big cook.  I’ll freely admit that cooking has never been something I’ve been particularly good at.  Making soup on the other hand – that’s where it’s at.  It’s cheap, you get to use up all the vegetables lingering in the bottom of your fridge, and you can create a healthy and hearty meal in next to no time with minimal effort.

10 Vegetarian Soup Recipes

I normally freestyle when it comes to soup.  Adding a bit of this and a bit of that, and adding the random vegetables we have left in the fridge before we do our next food shop.  However, sometimes a more considered approach can be a good idea.  Here are 10 tasty vegetarian soup recipes to have to hand:

Thai Coconut Courgetti Soup

Thai coconut courgetti soup from Olive Magazine.  Omit the fish sauce and shrimp paste if you’re vegetarian – I bet it will still be delicious without them.  Alternatively, a splash of soy sauce or tamari and a small helping of shiitake mushrooms will add the flavour you’re looking for.

Thai Coconut Broccoli Soup

Keeping with the Thai coconut theme, this Thai coconut broccoli soup from Heinstirred looks so fresh and light.

Beetroot and Pumpkin Soup

Beetroot and Pumpkin soup?  Yes please!

Roasted Tomato Soup with Cheddar Dumplings 

This recipe for roasted tomato soup with cheddar dumplings sounds like pretty much the ultimate tomato soup recipe, if you ask me.

Carrot & Roasted Chickpea Soup

Carrot & roasted chickpea soup for a healthy dose of beta-carotene!

German Potato Soup

German potato soup (omit the sausage garnish to make it a vegetarian soup) is good old-fashioned winter comfort food at its best.

Spiced Parsnip Soup

Spiced parsnip soup sounds deliciously autumnal.

Roasted Swede and Parsnip Soup

Roasted swede and parsnip soup.  Now, this recipe initially hurt my head a little.  Having no idea what a rutabaga is, nor what ‘coconut bacon’ is, the recipe left me a little perplexed.  A little internet search reveals that the grandly titled rutabaga is no more than a humble swede, and coconut bacon is flaked coconut with a bit of smoky flavouring.  Together they sound amazing.

Lemony Kale, Leek and White Bean Soup

This lemony kale, leek, and white bean vegetarian soup is perhaps the ultimate winter warmer.

Tex-Mex Quinoa Vegetable Soup

And finally, in the last of my vegetarian soup recipes, do try this Tex-Mex quinoa vegetable soup.  It’s next on my to-make list for sure.
