Souper Yum Vegan Soup

 This delicious vegan soup takes vegan to a new level...protein, veggie and flavor rich! The addition of sunflower seeds add a nutty rich flavor plus are high in phosphorus... helps keep bones and teeth strong; potassium... an electrolyte that counteracts the effects of sodium, helping to maintain a healthy blood pressure. It is also important for maintaining acid-base balance. And high in protein!
