This creamy potato soup is feel good, comfort food to keep you warm and bring a smile to your lips.

This soup is comfort food at its finest. Rich & velvety, dairy-free potato soup.

Crazy Oklahoma weather! Last week it was “puffy coats, layers & boots” kinda of weather and this week, it’s been hitting the 70’s! Is it like that where you live? Although I love the warmer weather and the way the sun feels on my face, I do like to take advantage of the cold days by making foods that are extra rich & comforting, that warm you from the inside out, like this Creamy Potato Soup. 

21-Day Dairy-Free Challenge

This recipe actually came about as a result of So Delicious’ 21-Day Dairy-free Challenge. Although we already eat dairy-free, I wanted to create something different, something that would make my kids extra happy, something that even my dairy, cheese & bacon lovin’ friends would rave about! Because it is after all, still completely vegan.

So Delicious Culinary Coconut Milk

Making the Switch

I use to love creamy potato soup and I use to love bacon. That all changed when I went vegan. We obviously cut out dairy and eggs initially because of my son’s allergies, but I felt like a reverse vegetarian…only eating meat and not the other stuff. After completing a 30 day fast, I had removed all meat and realized just how good I felt. I also studied a TON as I was being certified as a Health Coach and just couldn’t go back. Bye-bye bacon. Bye-bye red meat. Bye-bye animal protein.

Don’t feel bad for me though :). I know a few of my friends make a “frowny” face when they hear I don’t eat bacon. I actually don’t miss it! Plus, when I want that salty, smoky flavor, there’s vegan options out there like Lightlife Smart Bacon. And did you know that Bac’n Bits & Baco’s contain no bacon? You can totally do this vegan thing!

This soup is comfort food at its finest. Rich & velvety, dairy-free potato soup.

Especially when you can still have a creamy potato soup like this one! I can guarantee that you’ll fall in love with the first spoonful. My kids loved it so much that they ate it for dinner, took it for school lunch the next day, had a small bowl as a snack and then asked me to make it again! Speaking of creamy potato soups, take a look at this Vegetarian Mamma’s Instant Pot Cheesy Potato Leek Soup.  You can also make this dairy-free by switching to DF cheese.

This soup is comfort food at its finest. Rich & velvety, dairy-free potato soup.

Yummmm, look at that bowl of soup! You know you want some right now, don’t you? It’s calling your name…I can hear it from here.

Description

This classic, feel-good, comfort soup if rich & creamy, thick & delicious and completely dairy-free!  It’s also gluten-free too!  


Scale

Ingredients

1 package of “bacon” (I used Lifelight Vegan Bacon)

4 cups vegetable stock

2 lbs. golden potatoes, clean and diced (keep skin on for extra nutrients)

1 medium red onion, chopped

4 tablespoon vegan butter

1/3 cup gluten-free flour (can also use All-purpose)

1 container culinary coconut milk, regular (So Delicious Dairy-free)

1 cup vegan cheddar cheese (Daiya, shredded)

1/2 cup vegan cream cheese (Daiya or Tofutti)

salt & pepper to taste


Instructions

In a large stock pot, add diced potatoes, red onion & vegetable stock. Bring to medium high heat and let cook until potatoes are softened.  

While potatoes are simmering, cook bacon until crisp according to directions. Then chop or break into smaller pieces and set aside. 

In the pan you cooked the bacon in, start to make your roux.  Melt butter in pan on medium-low.  Whisk in flour until smooth and buttery, then add in coconut milk.  Continue to whisk and blend in flour.  Pour into potato soup and mix. 

Add cream cheese and shredded cheese and continue to stir until combined and melted.  Toss in cooked bacon bits (reserve 1/4 cup) and stir. 

Salt & pepper to taste. 

Serve nice and hot.  Sprinkle with extra cheese if desired, bacon bits, chopped green onions and even a little crushed red pepper flakes for a little heat. 

 

 


Notes

Soup will thicken as it rests.  Add a little extra stock, dairy free milk or even a little water when reheating to make more soupy.

    It’s still really chilly here in Scotland, so soup is very much on the menu. This soup sounds rather good!

    What is the obsession with bacon? I don’t get it. Anyway, this soup looks so delicious and creamy. I love the addition of smoky and crunchy animal free bits. Yum!
