Description
A bold, plant-based dish that combines the rich, smoky flavor of roasted red bell peppers with the earthy texture of chickpeas and the sweetness of maple syrup or coconut sugar. The addition of harissa paste (or red pepper flakes) brings a gentle heat, making this soup both comforting and invigorating.
Red bell peppers are packed with vitamin C and antioxidants, which support immune health, promote healthy skin, and help reduce inflammation. Raw almonds contribute healthy fats, protein, and vitamin E, which promote heart health, nourish the skin, and provide sustained energy. Chickpeas are a great source of plant-based protein and fiber, which support digestion, stabilize blood sugar levels, and aid in muscle recovery. Tomato paste and diced tomatoes provide a rich source of lycopene, a powerful antioxidant that helps protect the heart and skin. Paprika offers a smoky, slightly sweet flavor along with anti-inflammatory benefits, while harissa paste (or red pepper flakes) provides a metabolism-boosting kick and supports circulation. The addition of maple syrup or coconut sugar provides a touch of natural sweetness to balance the flavors.
Excellent choice for supporting digestive health, boosting immunity, and providing a satisfying, nutrient-dense meal rich in antioxidants, healthy fats, and plant-based protein. It's perfect for nourishing the body while offering bold and comforting flavors.
