Creamy Vegetable Soup
Dec 07, 2024 01:30 PM
This is by far the creamiest, most rich and delicious soup loaded with tender veggies and cream cheese! The whole family will love this gluten-free and vegetarian soup that is easy to make in 30 minutes or less.
This amazing Creamy Vegetable Soup is such a quick and easy recipe, wI think it’s a great addition to your weekly meal plan. It is SO creamy and flavorful, and is a fabulous way to get anyone to eat their vegetables!
You’ll love that it requires minimal chopping but offers maximum veggie intake… I am using bags of frozen vegetables so that the only two ingredients you need to chop are an onion and a couple of celery stocks. All the other vegetables including potatoes, bell peppers, corn, carrots, peas, and green beans are prepped and ready for you in the freezer section.
Other than colorful veggies, the flavor of the soup comes from pantry spices, and a block of cream cheese to thicken the soup base. The cream cheese melts into the broth creating a rich and silky texture for the soup. (If you want the soup to be thicker you can add a couple tablespoons of cornstarch as well, but it’s not necessary.)
This comforting and decadent soup is a true crowd-pleaser. It’s ready to serve in under 30 minutes with fresh crusty bread and a big green salad to round out the meal.
