Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 unit large yellow onion
• 3 unit garlic cloves
• 2 unit celery stalks
• 2 unit large carrots
• 4 cups Russet potatoes
• 4 cups vegetable broth
• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
• 1 unit bay leaf
• 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional)
• 2 tablespoons chopped green onions (optional)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

Dice the onion, mince the garlic, chop the celery and carrots, and add them to the pot. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

Step 3

Peel and dice the potatoes, then add them to the pot along with the vegetable broth and bay leaf.

Step 4

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover and cook for about 15 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.

Step 5

Remove and discard the bay leaf. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth and creamy. Alternatively, transfer the soup to a blender in batches and blend before returning to the pot.

Step 6

Stir in the unsweetened almond milk, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste, and heat through on low for an additional 5 minutes.

Step 7

If using, stir in the chopped fresh parsley and green onions just before serving.

Step 8

Serve hot and enjoy the rich, creamy flavors of the vegan potato soup.
