Ingredients
Instructions
Step 1
1. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add diced onion and red bell pepper, cooking for 5-7 minutes until vegetables soften and become translucent.
Step 2
2. Add diced sun-dried tomatoes, crushed garlic, tomato paste, smoked paprika, fennel seeds, and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir continuously for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and tomato paste darkens slightly.
Step 3
3. Add chickpeas, crushed tomatoes, vegetable broth, nutritional yeast, and fresh thyme leaves. Bring mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer uncovered for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 4
4. While soup simmers, prepare cashew cream if making from scratch: blend 1 cup raw cashews (soaked 2 hours and drained) with ¾ cup water until completely smooth.
Step 5
5. Add gnocchi to the simmering soup and cook for 3-4 minutes until they float to the surface. Add chopped kale and stir until wilted, about 2 minutes.
Step 6
6. Reduce heat to low and stir in cashew cream or coconut milk. Heat gently for 2-3 minutes without boiling to prevent curdling.
Step 7
7. Taste and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper as needed. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
