Isa’s Spicy Peanut and Eggplant Soup

IMG_0184I don’t think there’s any more perfect food than peanut butter. Well, maybe bananas. Anyway, I decided to try making peanut butter eggplant soup from Veganomicon tonight and it was sooo goood. Both my husband and I had a hard time not taking another helping despite having warm, full, happy bellies. The recipe was forgiving enough that I was able to use garlic instead of shallots and sesame oil instead of peanut oil and still got awesome fatty delicious soup.

If you wanna try making it, go get your own copy of Veganomicon! It’s got “NOM” right there in the title. Om nom nom.

    I’ve been following your vegan adventures on Facebook, Heidi, and enjoy your blog despite (or because) I follow a Paleo diet which at first glance would seem to be worlds away from vegan. A Paleo diet does include meat, of course, but without grains, legumes, sweeteners, or dairy, the bulk of the diet is vegetables and fruits. The world of creative fruit and vegetable dishes turns out to be a fantastic place to explore! And once you’ve given up cheese, it doesn’t seem like much of a loss after all… I bought Veganomicon after reading this post because this soup looks fabulous! I love it. Thanks!

    • Great to hear! I can assure you that you will not be disappointed. And I totally agree about the cheese. We get cashew cheese from time to time, but I don’t miss the texture of real cheese anymore.
