This is a simple vegan soup that’s perfect for a chilly spring supper. It works great as a side but is also hearty enough to stand alone as the main dish.

Made this soup for dinner tonight – it was delicious!
I substituted the tofu with chicken, added some fish sauce and did not use any agave (it was sweet enough already). Oh, and I added some tree oyster mushrooms as well… Fabulous!! :)
