Go to any restaurant and order a creamy soup and guaranteed it has some form of dairy in it.
Why?
Because most chefs don’t realize that you can make soup “creamy” without adding in the dairy.
Which is so annoying for those of us who can’t have dairy.
(I think I should go on a mission to educate restaurants on how to make non-dairy soups…seriously, if the soups don’t have dairy then they have gluten in it…what’s a girl with food sensitivities to do? Oh yeah, make my own--it’s better anyway :) )
How do I make “creamy” soups without the cream? Using oats is one little fantastic secret I learned at The Natural Gourmet and I swear by it.
This soup is sooooo delicious, easy and satisfying. It will quickly become your autumn/winter favorite like it is mine!

I’m pretty much a wimp when it comes to spice (and that is putting it mildly) so I think It is a bit spicier than I like BUT everyone I’ve made it for thinks it's fine. If you like the heat, feel free to turn it up a notch.
AND--this makes a HUGE Batch. I like to cook 1x and eat many times--feel free to make it how it is and then put some in the freezer or make half the batch.
