I don’t even know what to say about this other than just make it. It rocks. Big time. So comforting, so nourishing, so flavorful. It’s even good cold.
The soup is seriously fantastic just plain, but the added chickpeas, golden raisins, harissa, and tahini really take it to the next level. Add some crusty whole grain bread…it’s almost too good. Plus, it takes almost no effort and will bring you immeasurable joy. Don’t you want immeasurable joy?
My vegan sour cream is also the bomb with this. Time to give it a try!
