Vegetarian Vegetable Soup with Chicken-free Strips Recipe

I’m a sucker for easy recipes that pack a punch. This vegetarian vegetable soup is one of my favorites because it takes very little effort on my part, is packed full of veggies and protein, and when my oldest kid sees it he says, “I want to eat it every day, all day.” Kid-approved!

As a vegetarian, I need to be conscious of adding protein to our meals, so that’s when I head to protein-packed products like Beyond Meat. Beyond Meat has become my go-to chicken-free strips of choice because it is so incredibly easy to use, and it’s delicious! The texture is spot-on (from what I remember) and the flavor never fails. Try it next time you want make a vegetarian dish, or simply want to try something new.

Make this vegetarian vegetable soup in multiple batches and freeze for future use. It’s great with some added lemon, or make it creamy by adding some sour cream to it before serving. ¡Delicioso!
