If you want a creamy soup without cream, white beans are my replacement.
When blended, they create natural structure and richness, no dairy and no stock required. This Roasted Pepper and White Bean Soup is a great example of how delicious that swap can be.
The peppers add sweetness, the tomatoes bring balance, and the beans do the work of creating that silky, spoon-coating texture. It is not about adding roasted peppers to every soup, it is about understanding how beans can build creaminess on their own.
