Golden Turmeric Vegetable Soup
Creamy golden turmeric vegetable soup; made with vegetables, cashews, and curry spices! A warm and comforting paleo whole30 dinner recipe, full of rich earthy flavors.
When you hike a few too many miles in a week and wake up sore, you know what time it is… turmeric time.
Please gimme all the turmeric.
I loaded up on virtually every golden yellow food today.
My Instagram was taken over by turmeric soup, turmeric cookies, and turmeric latte‘s.
Not that I went overboard, extreme, or anything like that. I’m not extreme person at all.
golden soup to the rescue!
That being said, I’m sure glad I have a love for that golden yellow stuff; otherwise, today would’ve sucked. 🙂
Turmeric is chocked full of anti-inflammatory and healing benefits. So I was reaching handover hand for my spice cupboard all day.
You know those days when you feel puffy and wonderfully tomato like? Today was one of those days for me.
The bum around in your pjs, live in your slippers, make all the turmeric things and watch Gilmore Girls kind of day.
I did it. All day.
And I enjoyed every moment of peace and quiet, yellow baking, and gloomy skies that seemed to say, “I gotchu fam”.
Anyway, it seemed that you guys might have those kind of days too, because I was immediately flooded with messages and replies wondering where all of my crazy turmeric recipes could be found??
Well, here’s the start of the yellow recipe flood people.
Enjoy.
And if people turn their nose up at you for mixing turmeric, lemon, cashews, and vegetables in a blender, just think: more for us.
Note: I store leftovers in a recycled yogurt container or glasslock in the fridge for 2-3 days; if it’s not gone by then I toss it in the freezer for later!

I just made a variation of this. I doubled the veggies and tripled the spices and added some coconut milk. It’s like drinking sunshine mmmmm.
Totally like drinking sunshine!! Love it 🙂
Can you leave out the cashews?
Hi Jolene, leaving out the cashews will make it really watery and not as creamy.
how long do you simmer with the water? or, is it not needed? thanks!
Hi Sophie, it doesn’t have to simmer with the water, because the vegetables are already soft from being sautéed. 🙂
What did you use to garnish this soup? Is it honey? Wilted spinach and walnuts….
Hi Katrina, it’s olive oil, basil, and walnuts. 🙂
I threw it all in the Instant Pot for 4 minutes then blended! It’s amazing! And cleansing ?
Roasted all the root vegetables, cashews in seasonings and olive oil in 450 degree oven for 25 minutes. I put everything in instant pot with vegetable broth and coconut milk, heated for for minutes on sauté with lid on venting, blended and served with cashews and olive oil drizzle on top.
Added everything except for the olive oil to the Instant Pot and cooked for 5 minutes on high pressure. When finished cooking, blended with my immersion blender. So easy and delicious!
