Aside from being hearty and nourishing, another reason people love soup is that it’s incredibly versatile. The truth is, from tomatoes to cauliflower to sweet potatoes, when combined with vegetarian broth or a can of coconut milk, pretty much any vegetable can become a soup. That means this dish is easy to make vegan, too—just leave out the meat broth and dairy.
