Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion chopped
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 2 medium Yukon gold potatoes diced
- 3 cups vegetable broth
- 2 ½ cups sweet corn frozen or fresh, your choice
- 1 cup unsweetened plant-based milk oat or almond recommended
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast optional, for that savory depth
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives chopped (for garnish, if you’re feeling fancy)
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat like a boss.
- Sauté chopped onion until soft and see-through—around 5 minutes.
- Add garlic, thyme, and a dash of sarcasm. Cook another minute, stirring constantly.
- Stir in potatoes, broth, and corn. Bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat, simmer uncovered for 15–20 minutes until potatoes surrender.
- Stir in plant milk and nutritional yeast. Let flavors get friendly.
- For extra creaminess, blend half the soup, then reunite it with the chunky half.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste, and sprinkle with chives if desired.
