Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 medium (diced) Yellow onion
• 3 minced Garlic cloves
• 2 medium (diced) Carrots
• 2 diced Celery stalks
• 6 medium (peeled and diced) Russet potatoes
• 5 cups Vegetable broth
• 1 cup Full-fat coconut milk
• 3 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
• 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon (adjust to taste) Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons (adjust to taste) Ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons (chopped, optional garnishing) Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the diced yellow onion and sauté for 4-5 minutes until softened and translucent.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and sauté for an additional minute, until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the diced carrots and celery to the pot and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 5

Add the peeled and diced potatoes, vegetable broth, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Stir well and increase the heat to bring the mixture to a boil.

Step 6

Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, until the potatoes are very tender.

Step 7

Turn off the heat and use an immersion blender to carefully blend the soup until it's creamy and smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup in batches to a countertop blender and blend until smooth before returning it to the pot.

Step 8

Stir in the full-fat coconut milk and nutritional yeast, and reheat the soup on low heat for 2-3 minutes if needed.

Step 9

Taste the soup and adjust the salt and pepper as desired.

Step 10

Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm.
