VEGAN Creamy Wild Rice, Mushroom, & Sauerkraut Soup

·

I've had our VEGAN Creamy Wild Rice, Mushroom, & Sauerkraut Soup three times now and I feel like it just keeps getting better every time... full of fresh flavors WITHOUT any artificial ingredients, NO sugar, and NO dairy! It's the perfect dish to transition us out of this cold winter season into Spring

If you aren't vegan, then I really recommend adding an over-medium egg or scrambled eggs on top of your bowl for a satisfying, heartwarming meal!

Now, a key ingredient to the robust flavors in this soup is Bubbie's Naturally-Fermented Sauerkraut...

It's made with NO preservatives, NO added sugars, and NO Vinegar. Therefore, you aren't going to have that sour, tangy taste in the soup like normal sauerkraut. Instead, Bubbies' Naturally-Fermented Sauerkraut adds subtle peppery notes with a little crunch.

Why are naturally fermented foods healthy for your body?

From kefir to yogurt to sauerkraut, naturally fermented foods help feed the "good" bacteria in your stomach, which may help improve your digestion and boost your immune system.

In fact, naturally-fermented sauerkraut is rich in fiber, minerals, and vitamins. The fermentation process creates these ultra-nutritious probiotics that may help your body absorb other nutrients more easily. For example, the sauerkraut in this soup may help your body more fully absorb the nutrients in carrots (like potassium, beta carotene, and fiber) and wild rice (like vitamin A, vitamin K, and vitamin C).  

This soup would even pair amazing with my Garlic, Chive, & Sauerkraut German Pretzels!
