Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion, finely diced
  • 3 cloves minced garlic
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ cup nutritional yeast
  • 4 medium sized yukon gold potatoes, cubed (I leave the peels on, but they can be peeled if you prefer)
  • 1 large red bell pepper, diced
  • 4 cups frozen or fresh corn
  • 5 cups "chickenless" broth or vegetable broth
  • 1 cup raw cashews
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Cover cashews in boiling water and set aside to soak.
  • In a large pot on medium heat, add the olive oil, and onion. Cook for 3-4 minutes. Add the red bell pepper, and garlic and cook for another minute.
  • Next, pour in the vegetable broth, corn, potatoes, and smoked paprika. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer for about 10 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked.
  • Strain water off the cashews. Add the cashews, nutritional yeast and 2 cups of the cooked soup to a blender and blend until smooth and creamy. Add the creamy mixture back into your soup and stir to combine.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste, serve and enjoy!
