Soups

Potato Leek Soup with Beluga Lentils

Potato leek soup is a classic and delicious comforting dish. Originally made with creamer I use cashews which make this soup particularly creamy. Plus cashews are much healthier than any bought creamer. Furthermore, I added beluga lentils as a tasty soup inlay. Besides taste, and having something to bite on, they also provide an extra portion of protein.

My name is Heidi, and I'm glad you're here! Being a vegetarian since 1990 and living vegan since 2013 has led me to learn about and cook countless plant-based dishes. I love no-frills food that's (mostly) healthy and budget-friendly, but always delicious.
