Creamy Vegan Potato Soup Recipes

Steps:

• In a large pot, saute your onion and garlic in the coconut oil for a few minutes, just until onions are softened.
• Add potatoes to the pot along with the 7 1/2 cups water. Allow to simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until potatoes are fork tender. Once potatoes are tender, or close enough, add corn kernels and (if using frozen) cook for another few minutes until thawed.
• Heat 1 1/2 cups water with vegan bouillon cubes for 1-2 minutes in the microwave (or in a small saucepan on the stove top if you prefer).
• In a high speed blender, process 3-4 cups of the soup (make sure to get plenty of potatoes, corn, and onion), water/bouillon mixture, cashews, and nutritional yeast until smooth (if you have a Blendtec, use the Soup button). Pour blended mixture back into the pot and stir until well incorporated.
• Serve hot with crusty garlic bread!

Steps:

• Cook the first 8 ingredients in the crock pot on high for 3-4 hours or until the potatoes are tender when tested with a fork.
• Add to the soup an easy-roux made of 1/2 cup flour shaken vigerously in a mason jar with 1 cup of the half and half,( you may also in addition to shaking this mixture whisk it in order to smooth out all the lumps), the other cup of half and half and the cheese. Continue cooking the soup for another 30 minutes.
• To achieve a smooth consistency, mash the potatoes in the crock pot, adding some extra half and half or broth if needed. You may also put the soup in a blender afterward in order to have a creamier texture if desired. Some portion of the potatoes may be kept in their present whole state for the varied effect which is also great!
• Serve hot and garnish with fresh parsley or other fresh herbs and side-toppings like coursley shredded parmesan and cheddar cheese, sour cream or plain yogurt and chopped fresh chives. Chopped crisp bacon also makes a nice meat-lovers' topping! Enjoy! Note: the 30-minute prep time really depends on how long it takes to get the potatoes, onion and garlic chopped and whether or not you choose to leave the potato skins on !

Steps:

• Melt margarine in a large stockpot over medium heat; cook and stir onions, celery, and carrots until tender, about 10 minutes. Add water, vegetable bouillon, salt, and pepper; stir well. Add potatoes and bring soup to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
• Mix 4 cups soy milk and instant potatoes into soup until dissolved.
• Stir remaining 1/2 cup soy milk and cornstarch together in a bowl until smooth; add to the soup, stirring well. Cook soup until heated through, stirring regularly, 5 to 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place vegetarian bacon strips in the skillet without overlapping. Cook over medium-low heat, turning occasionally, until crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Let sit until cool enough to handle, then dice and set aside.
• Combine potatoes, water, 1 cup milk, cream, and vegetable bouillon in a pot. Bring to a simmering boil. Add cooked "bacon," celery, and carrot. Stir in parsley, Worcestershire, thyme, garlic powder, dry mustard, salt, red wine, and pepper.
• Heat butter and oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion in the pan until golden, 7 to 10 minutes. Stir in flour and mix well. Stir in remaining 1/3 cup milk slowly until well mixed. Pour into potato mixture and stir well.
• Cook until soup is thick and potatoes are tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
