It was in my notes today to make a broccoli cheese/carrot/cauliflower type soup and then we ended up here with a vegan gingery carrot soup topped with cilantro, peanuts, and spicy red chili paste! Cooking is funny like that. We can start with a batch of ingredients in front of us and a general idea in our minds and then a few ingredients get switched out and something completely different comes out of the oven! Or in my case, the beloved Instant Pot.

Pinch of Yum has a spicy sweet potato and kale soup that I was reminded of when creating my soup. They have some similarities in the sweet root vegetables and the fresh add-ins on top. I’m completely in love with this combo of flavors and there’s even a bonus! If you’re feeding a baby or small child, the soup base can be given to them from a pouch before you add the toppings. They’ll love it!
