From: www.keepinitkind.com
Serves: 4
> For the cream
1 can great northern white beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup unsweetened almond milk
4 Tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 1/2 Tbsp nutritional yeast
1 1/2 tsp white miso
½ tsp mustard powder
> For the soup
1 tsp olive oil
2 shallots, chopped
1-2 medium-large cloves garlic, minced
2 cups canned or frozen (thawed) artichoke hearts
2 cups spinach leaves
2 tsp dried basil
1 tsp dried oregano
3 cups vegetable broth
1 cups water
Pepper, to taste
In a high speed blender or food processor, combine the ingredients for the cream and blend until smooth. Set aside until ready to use.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat for 1 minute. Add the shallots and garlic and saute until fragrant and the shallots become slightly translucent. Add the artichokes, basil, and oregano, and saute for 2-3 minutes. Add the spinach, vegetable broth, and water and mix well. Put the lid on the pot and bring to a boil. You will need to stir it a few times until the spinach cooks down. Once it is boiling, crack the lid and lower to a simmer. Let it simmer for about 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes, remove the soup from heat. Use and immersion blender to pulse the soup until it has a chunky consistency, not smooth. Pour in the cream and mix until combined. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Return to a simmer for about 5-10 minutes. Remove from heat again and serve. Enjoy!
