Spiced Vegan Winter Soup

February calls for cozy bowls of nourishing soups like this one! It’s packed with fresh vegetables and warming spices like turmeric and coriander. Top with pumpkin seeds for a little added crunch and a boost of magnesium. If serving to a baby, use low-sodium vegetable broth, omit the salt and pumpkin seeds and chop the veggies into chickpea sized bites. Best to smash the navy beans before serving to a baby as well.

February calls for cozy bowls of nourishing soups like this one! It’s packed with fresh vegetables and warming spices like turmeric and coriander. Top with pumpkin seeds for a little added crunch and a boost of magnesium. If serving to a baby, use low-sodium vegetable broth, omit the salt and pumpkin seeds and chop the veggies into chickpea sized bites. Best to smash the navy beans before serving to a baby as well.

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 6 celery stalks (trimmed and chopped)
• 4 medium carrots (trimmed and chopped)
• 6 medium tomatoes (chopped)
• 2 (14-ounce)cans navy beans (rinsed and drained)
• 1 large yellow onion (chopped)
• 3 garlic cloves (minced)
• 2 1/2 teaspoons sweet paprika

2. Add all remaining ingredients except cashews, lemon juice, and parsley/pumpkin seeds. Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low.
