One Pot Soup Recipes For the Win!
This white bean fasolada soup is the perfect one-pot lunch or dinner! I love a good One Pot Meal, especially during these fall months when the weather starts to turn cooler. Cooking everything in one pot is one of my favorite ways to get a meal on the table fast! All the food gets cooked at once, which makes cleaning up a breeze. And the stove does all the work for you, so you can focus on other kitchen prep while the food cooks. One Pot meals are awesome for breakfast, lunch, or dinner – check out my link here to see other healthy one pot meals that are ready in no time!
Make Fasolatha Gluten Free for a Healthy Version
This gluten free fasolatha recipe is a simple meal to make without the wheat. I’m all about making recipes gluten free when I can. Gluten free cooking does NOT have to be bland, boring, or flavorless… It’s quite the opposite when done right. By building meals around gluten free pantry staples and swapping in a few wheat-less ingredients you can make healthier meals for you and your family. I made a list of my 125 favorite gluten free pantry ingredients that we use on a weekly basis, and check out all my gluten free recipes here that are on The Herbeevore. These easy and healthy recipes are fantastic meals for everyone at your table.
What’s In This Vegan Fasolatha Soup Recipe?
I get all the fresh produce for my recipes from my garden and from Misfits Market – they sell all organic produce at a super discounted price, and it’s purchased direct from the farmers. We get Misfit Market boxes every other week and love picking out our favorite seasonal produce for delivery. You can get $10 off your first $30 box by clicking here!
If you think organic produce is too expensive… think again, and give Misfits Market a look!
- White Beans: you can use canned navy or cannellini beans, just make sure they are cooked and not dried. If you use canned beans, make sure to get a low or no sodium variety, so the soup isn’t too salty.
- Olive Oil: I like ZOE olive oil which has a bright fresh flavor and is a great value for the price!
- Carrots: for some color and sweetness
- Garlic Salt: for some extra spice and flavor, I always keep garlic salt in my pantry!
- Celery: for a bright fresh crunch
- Tomato Paste: for an amazing tomato-y depth of flavor. I like these no salt added tomato pastes, I just got a flat of these to stock up my pantry!
- Cumin: for a little bit of smoky flavor! You can also use ground coriander too. I love adding cumin to soups, stews, and chilis, so I have a large container that we always use.
- Reduced Sodium Vegetable Stock or Bouillon: I love this Better than Bouillon Vegetable Base for my recipes because it has a great flavor and is lower in sodium. I only develop my recipes with low sodium ingredients so the ingredients shine. You can always add salt to a recipe if it needs it, but it’s almost impossible to take it out! Start with a low sodium broth or bouillon, and add more salt later if needed.
One of the BEST Pantry Staple Soup Recipes
This Greek fasolada soup recipe is a fantastic pantry-staple meal! It uses almost all ingredients you would have in your dry pantry or cupboards. You probably already have a lot of these ingredients on hand! Keeping a well-stocked pantry makes it easy to come up with delicious and healthy meals using a few staples you can rotate. I made a list of my Top 125 Plant-Based Pantry Staples that always keep on hand. And you can check out all my favorite pantry staple recipes on TheHerbeevore.com here.

How Do I Make This Vegan Fasolatha Soup Recipe?
- In a large pot, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Add the carrots, celery, and zucchini, and saute for 7-8 minutes over low heat to soften the vegetables. Add the tomato paste, garlic salt, water/vegetable stock, paprika, ground cumin, and oregano.
- Bring to a boil and reduce heat to low. Simmer the soup for about 20 minutes until carrots and zucchini are tender.
- Add the beans and fresh lemon juice to the soup, and stir well to combine. Cook for 5 minutes more over low heat.
- Once ready to serve, drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil on top for a lush velvety finish.
Frozen Vegetable Soup Recipes For the Win!
You can use frozen veggies for this recipe instead of fresh produce. Frozen produce is a great option for finding fresh and flavorful vegetables in the off season. By using freezer ingredients, I can stock up when they are on sale, and use them in all kinds of great dishes. It saves me a trip to the store, and I can add amazing veggies right into the recipe. Frozen vegetables are often picked at peak ripeness, so they are a much better option than canned. Check out all my recipes that use Freezer Ingredients on The Herbeevore – great for those nights when you want dinner ready fast!
