Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 large yellow onions thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 tsp thyme
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 tbsp coconut aminos
  • 1 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • ½ tsp apple cider vinegar
  • ½ cup shredded vegan cheese optional
  • Chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onions and stir every few minutes so they don’t burn.
  • Let onions caramelize for 20-25 minutes, stirring and whispering sweet nothings. Add garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper.
  • Pour in broth, coconut aminos, vinegar, and nutritional yeast. Stir, simmer, and watch magic happen for 10 more minutes.
  • Ladle soup into bowls. Top with vegan cheese if you’re feeling extra. Broil until bubbly or just eat as is.
  • Sprinkle parsley on top like you meant to do this all along. Serve hot and smug.
