Warm up with our best Fall Soup Recipes. This creamy vegan soup features sweet potato and chickpeas in a spiced coconut broth for a cozy, comforting meal.
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent.
Add the garlic, carrots, and celery to the pot. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften.
Stir in the sweet potato, cumin, and smoked paprika. Cook for 2 minutes to toast the spices, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the sweet potato is tender.
Add the coconut milk, chickpeas, and spinach to the pot. Stir well and simmer for an additional 5 minutes, or until the spinach is wilted and the soup is heated through.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve warm with crusty bread or a side of your choice.
