This hearty Tomato, Carrot, Brussels Sprouts Soup is not only loaded with veggies and flavor, it’s also loaded with nutrient dense, hearty healthy goodness! I’ll bet you’ve never had Brussels sprouts in a soup, but they are delicious served this way.

This soup is warm, creamy, and savory with a little bit of sweetness and spice. Lots of veggies, beans, and nut butter make this a delicious and comforting soup you will want to have all winter.

Tomato Brussels Sprout Soup

This is the kind of soup where you can add what you have on hand so no need to go to the store if you don’t have every ingredient. It was inspired by Dr. Fuhrman.

Although I have Dr. Fuhrman’s book, Eat for Health, and I love the recipes, I don’t always have everything that’s called for. So, I improvise with what I have. It’s hard to fail with most soups and easier to use up what you have on hand.

While your here, check out these plant-based recipes:

  • Green Berry Smoothie
  • Instant Pot Butternut Squash Risotto with Basil Pesto
  • Arugula, Orange Fennel Salad
  • Tempeh Reuben Sandwich
  • Potato Gratin with Jalapeño & Tempeh Bacon

Carrot-JuiceFor this recipe, I had carrots, onion, Brussels sprouts, lentils, beans, and home-grown beets. Using veggies from my garden always make dishes even more delightful.

Many of Dr. Fuhrman’s recipes call for carrot juice and I did use that here, but it adds sweetness and if you don’t like that in a soup, use water or veggie broth instead.

I actually found organic carrot juice in a jar from Lakewood brand. It may not be as fresh as freshly squeeze but may be easier for you.

You can substitute vegetable broth if you don’t have carrot juice.

If you don’t have everything you need for this hearty, plant-based soup, use what you do have and up your nutrient density for the day.

Mix n match with these main ingredients:

  • Liquid: broth, water, carrot juice,
  • Vegetables: cruciferous or root veggies of your choice.
  • Beans: lentils, chickpeas, kidney beans

    I made this yesterday, and it turned out wonderfully. I didn’t use carrot juice — it’s not something I generally have in my pantry — rather, a combination of broth and water. Full of flavor, and it’s a nice, warming, hearty bowlful on a blustery day like today. Oh, and out house smelled great all day long! Thank you…

      I’m so glad you enjoyed the recipe! I love the smell of cooking soups, especially when cinnamon and garam masala are involved. 🙂

    I made this with left over carrots and brussel sprouts. I didn’t have green lentils, carrot juice or a large both but it was still very tasty and will definitely make it again.

      I’m glad you enjoyed it and happy to see you made it your own. Soups are great the way you can add or subtract just about any ingredient and they usually work well. 🙂
