A delicious vegan soup with added B12
This is a beautifully simple vegan soup, designed to give you a quick energy boost to see you through the cold nights.
Since vitamin B12 is provided almost exclusively by meat and dairy (there are some types of algae which contain low amounts) it is common for vegans to develop a B12 deficiency.
Engevita B12 yeast flakes are a gluten-free, flavourful supplement, which can be added to soups and stews, used as a topping, or dissolved in milk or juice, to add a cheesy, nutty taste.
The cooked tomatoes release their lycopene quicker, and retain their natural antioxidants, whilst the onions are a fantastic source of disease-fighting polyphenols.
Adding garlic not only gives the soup a lovely rich taste, it's also highly nutritious, anti-inflammatory, and low in calories.
Energy boosting, disease-fighting, hot and delicious, this is the perfect winter warmer for a vegan diet.
