How to Make 7 Samurai Vegan Soup
- Finely chop all vegetables.
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions and carrots and sauté for 5-7 minutes, until softened.
- Add the celery, bell pepper, and mushrooms. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Pour in the vegetable broth and add the zucchini, spinach, and beans. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes, or until all vegetables are tender.
- For the adult version: Season with salt, pepper, and soy sauce to taste. Serve hot.
- For the kid-friendly version: Carefully puree the soup using an immersion blender or regular blender. Add the potatoes (cut into bite-sized pieces) to the pureed soup. Simmer until potatoes are tender, about 10-15 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt, if desired.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
