This curried cashew spinach soup is light, creamy, spicy and tastes amazing!!
A yummy, spicy healthy spinach soup recipe.
Spinach soup that I have eaten every day this month. It is so amazingly creamy (without any cream) yet light. Thanks to raw cashews.
Flavorful and spicy with cumin, coriander, cayenne and turmeric.
Here’s the thing, I’m not a salad person <– wierdo
I don’t mind munching on a bowl of salad occasionally, but I prefer my veggies in cooked form, not sure why.
This dairy free spinach soup comes together in about 10 minutes (plus cooling time) –
- Toast cumin seeds in oil
- Saute cashews, onion and garlic
- Saute spinach and spices
- Add chicken stock, cook for a minute and let cool
- Blend until creamy
Ladle into bowls and enjoy.

I love my veggies cooked, but also love salad (but my lettuce has to be room temp!!). This soup looks so fresh and I love that it’s dairy free. Your pictures are gorgeous!!
This sounds delicious and I love that gorgeous vibrant green!
ooo yes love that you used cashews!!! it makes things so creamy and dreamy. i once added them to a smoothie that was marketed to taste like apple pie, and it definitely gave the smoothie a buttery, pie crust like element (:
