I don’t care what time of year it is, I can always go for a good soup. And this Poblano Soup comes together in less than an hour, is filling, makes great leftovers…and that crispy soyrizo topping! It is just the perfect combo. You can add extra spice or keep it mild. Swap out the pinto beans if you like something better. Or load it up with as many toppings as your heart desires. Unlimited possibilities.

How to make the Poblano Soup

Start out by dicing the veggies. You will need poblano peppers, yellow onion, garlic and jalapeño. Add all the veggies to a stock pot with oil and some spices. Cook everything down for about 5 minutes.

Add in a can of fire roasted tomatoes, 2 cans of drained pinto beans, salsa verde and 3 cups of broth. Bring to a boil, then cover partially, lower the heat and simmer for 20 minutes.

How to make the Crispy Soyrizo

While the soup is simmering, go ahead and make the soyrizo topping. There really isn’t a lot to it. Heat a pan over medium heat and add the soyrizo. Break it apart with a wooden and move it around until it is nice and crispy. Remove it from the pan and set aside.

You can also prep any other toppings you would like to use. I sliced up some limes and chopped some cilantro. But here are some other topping suggestions:

  • avocado
  • tortilla chips
  • pico de gallo
  • corn
  • rice
  • hot sauce

How to serve Poblano Soup with Crispy Soyrizo

After the soup is done simmering, use an immersion blender to blend about half of the soup. If you don’t have an immersion blender, you can also transfer half of the soup to a standing blender, blend, then add it back to the pot. This will thicken the soup. You can also skip this step if you want a thinner soup.

Stir in some vegan cream cheese and non-dairy creamer (or non-dairy milk) and stir until smooth and creamy.

Add the hot soup to bowls and top with the crispy soyrizo and any other toppings you have on hand.

Notes

*I use Ripple non-dairy creamer. It has the most neutral flavor of all of the brands I’ve tried.
**If you don’t have an immersion blender, transfer half of the soup to a standing blender and pulse until smooth. Transfer back to the pot.
