Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the top off a whole garlic bulb, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle a pinch of salt. Wrap in aluminum foil and bake for 40-45 minutes.
- Clean and slice 2 leeks. Soak ½ cup of raw cashews in boiling water for 15 minutes. Blanch 4 cups of spinach in boiling water for 2 minutes, then transfer to an ice bath.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add 1 can of drained, quartered artichokes and sauté for 5-6 minutes until golden.
- In the same pot, add the prepped leeks and sauté for about 10 minutes until translucent. Add a diced onion and sauté for another 5 minutes.
- Stir in ¼ cup of nutritional yeast, 1 teaspoon of ground coriander, and red pepper flakes. Cook for 2 minutes.
- Pour in 2 cans of cannellini beans, 4 cups of vegetable broth, bay leaves, and thyme. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 20 minutes.
- In a blender, combine soaked cashews, roasted garlic, miso paste, and about ½ cup of water. Blend until smooth, then add the blanched spinach.
- Remove bay leaves and thyme. Stir in the cashew cream mixture and seared artichokes. Season with salt and heat through for 5 minutes.

Notes
Make roasted garlic ahead of time. Clean leeks thoroughly to avoid grit. Adjust broth for desired soup thickness.
