Vegan White Bean Soup (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Vegetables

01 - 3 cloves of garlic
02 - 4 onions, chopped finely
03 - 2 medium-sized carrots
04 - 3 thick cuts of celery root (about finger-width)
05 - 2 stalks of leek

→ Canned & Pantry Items

06 - 200 grams cracked freekeh
07 - 2 tablespoons of thick tomato paste
08 - 2 cans of white beans
09 - 2 cans of diced tomatoes
10 - 8 cups (2 liters) of veggie broth

→ Herbs & Spices

11 - 1 teaspoon celery salt
12 - 2 teaspoons of oregano
13 - 2 teaspoons of marjoram
14 - 2 small bunches of parsley, chopped
15 - 4 teaspoons sweet paprika powder
16 - 2 teaspoons onion powder
17 - 1 teaspoon smoked salt (optional)

# Instructions:

01 - Pulse the freekeh in a high-speed blender to crack it. Soak the freekeh in veggie stock overnight. If you're swapping for TVP, just soak it in enough of the same broth overnight instead.
02 - It looks like some steps are missing. Usually, you'd simmer everything together—veggies, beans, and spices—until the flavors come together.

# Notes:

01 - This spicy dish is quick to whip up and works perfectly for large batches.
02 - A fun swap for chili and a hit at gatherings.
03 - Freekeh can be replaced with TVP if you prefer.
