← Replies in Sun-Dried Tomato Tortellini Soup Recipe

Sub coconut milk for heavy cream, vegan spinach tortellini, and veggie broth for chicken broth to make it vegan. Added crumbled veggie sausage..Also add light tsp baking soda to mute coconut flavor. So good! My husband and kids loved it! This has replaced my MIL's rustic italian tortellini soup for my mostly plant based family.

I’m always hesitant to sub coconut milk in case it gives a coconut flavor - did you feel like it still tasted Italian even with the coconut milk? (I’m lactose intolerant and always looking for ways to make recipes dairy free!)

Add up to 1tsp baking soda to neutralize the coconut flavor. I made a potato soup w/coconut milk and it tasted of coconut. My husband just googled how to neutralize the flavor and it said baking soda. Who would've thunk?! It works!

That’s brilliant! I also never thought of googling that 😅. I will totally be using that in the future. Thank you!!
