Join the discussionWhat if I don’t drink milk? Is there a way to opt out of that one item? Almond milk? I would love to make this…but just wonder what substitutions are a possibility.
You could definitely substitute with your dairy free milk of choice. I would go for almond or full fat coconut though to maintain the creaminess. As for the cheese, there aren’t as many options other than the vegan cheeses.
Could I substitute Almond flour, to make this Gluten Free? It looks like a perfect comfort soup. Yummy!!
You could use almond flour, it just may change the flavor a little bit. You could also use all purpose gluten free flour if you are ok with gluten free grains.
This is not vegetarian. chicken stock?
Our apologies Wendy! It was tagged incorrectly and is not Vegetarian. I have updated it now so it will no longer show up in the Vegetarian search results.
