YUM! I love me some potatoes, anyway possible except in hash brown patties or tater tots!
It’s raining today in Southern California which equates to another one of my 101 reasons to declare it a soup day!
This soup comes together quickly and since potatoes are a relatively bland vegetable, you can use your imagination and add your own toppings.
In addition to the Tofurky and Parmela Creamery shreds I used extra Parmela Creamery shreds, chopped red onion and a dash of Sriracha!
Quick, economical and DELICIOUS!
ENJOY!

Don’t freak out if you are seeing the word “sausage” in the headline, it’s vegan. Trust me when I promise you that everything on this site is vegan!
There is a local restaurant that I always thought made the best lentil soup…until now. This has become a new favorite in our house for vegans and non-vegans, alike.
I used the Trader Joe’s Italian Sausage-less Sausage in this soup and it tastes absolutely fantastic. You can also top each bowl with a dollop of vegan sour cream for extra creaminess.
ENJOY!

I love soup. One of the reasons fall and winter are great times of year is that soup is almost always right! Even in Orange County, CA! I love pea and bean soups and have another recipe for Split Pea Soup on the blog but in this version, I use Trader Joe’s 10 Minute Barley in place of the potatoes and leave out some of the seasonings.
When making this soup, it is always about desired consistency. I used 8 cups of water/stock but you can always opt for more or less. It is all up to you and your personal preferences. I recommend starting out with 6 cups and adding more, a little at a time.
This soup can also be made in the crock pot and the dried, split peas can be soaked overnight to cut down on cooking time.
Any questions/comments, please let me know.
ENJOY!
