This hearty vegetable soup is a great meal for chilly fall and winter nights. I make this super-easy vegan vegetable soup about every other week during the winter. It’s thick and hearty, almost like a stew. Served with warm whole grain bread it makes a filling meal. Use beans or green peas in place of edamame if preferred.
