🍋 Transform the classic Greek egg-lemon soup into a creamy vegan delight with this authentic Vegan Avgolemono recipe. Featuring tangy lemon, hearty rice, and a silky tahini-miso base, this one-pot wonder delivers all the traditional flavors without any animal products.
My favorite Greek soup (avgolemono) has turned vegan, and it’s one of my absolute favorites. This vegan avgolemono is super creamy, authentic, easy, and can be whipped up in one pot. The creamy lemon-rice combination creates a comforting dish that brings me right back to my Greek roots.
❤️ Why You’ll Love Vegan Avgolemono
- Authentic: All the flavors of traditional Greek avgolemono soup are made completely plant-based.
- One-Pot Wonder: Everything comes together in a single pot for easy cleanup.
- Dairy-free: The combination of rice, tahini, and miso creates a luxurious texture.
🍲 Ingredients
Avgolemono Base – This soup is traditionally called avgolemono, but what really transforms it from a basic soup to this magical dish is the combination of tahini, miso paste, lemon juice, and stock. These ingredients replace the traditional egg-lemon mixture while maintaining the signature creamy, tangy profile that makes this Greek classic so beloved.
Nutritional Yeast – Also known as “nooch,” this deactivated yeast sold in the form of yellow flakes or powder brings a savory, almost cheesy flavor to the soup. It’s packed with B vitamins and protein, making it both delicious and nutritious – the perfect addition to this vegan avgolemono soup.
👩🍳 How to Make Vegan Avgolemono
- Into a large stock pot add your olive oil, onions, carrots, celery and garlic. Cook on low heat for 10 minutes, make sure to stir occasionally to avoid any browning or burning. You don’t want the vegetables to develop any color, just want them translucent and soft.
- Once your veggies have cooked down for 10 minutes you can add your veg stock cubes, water, nutritional yeast and tamari or soy sauce.
Bring this mixture to a boil, lower heat and add your rice. Cook for around 20 minutes with lid on or until your rice is cooked.
While your soup is cooking prepare your Miso Tahini Lemon Sauce simply by adding all your ingredients into a blender and blending till smooth. NOTE: let your stock from soup cool for a few minutes before adding to the blender with other ingredients.
If your rice is ready you can remove the pot from the heat and begin stirring in your lemon sauce. Continue stirring till well combined. Add your fresh dill or parsley and stir just once more.
Give your soup a little taste test then add the necessary seasoning. Enjoy hot with more fresh parsley or dill!
🗒 Tips and Tricks
- Vegetables: For the best flavor, cook onions, carrots, and celery on low heat just until soft, not browned.
- Rice: Use a short-grain variety for the creamiest texture in your avgolemono.
- Blending: Let stock cool slightly before blending with tahini and miso to prevent separation.
🗒 Substitutions
- Rice: Brown rice can replace white for added nutrition (allow extra cooking time).
- Herbs: Fresh parsley works well if dill isn’t available.
- Protein: Add chickpeas or white beans for a heartier vegan avgolemono soup.
- Miso: If unavailable, use additional nutritional yeast and a touch more salt.
🗒 Best served with
- Twist Bread (with Pesto & Parmesan)
- Cauliflower Pizza Crust with Arugula Salad Topper
- Easy & Authentic Greek Salad Recipe
👝 How to Store Leftovers
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
🤔 Common Questions
Traditional avgolemono gets its creaminess from an egg-lemon mixture. This vegan version uses tahini and miso to create the same silky texture and rich flavor while maintaining the signature tangy lemon profile.
While orzo is sometimes used in avgolemono, rice creates a creamier texture as it releases starch during cooking. This helps achieve that authentic velvety consistency in the vegan version.
Yes! The flavors actually improve after a day in the refrigerator. The rice may absorb more liquid, so you might need to add a splash of broth when reheating.
Yes, this vegan avgolemono is naturally gluten-free as long as you use gluten-free vegetable stock and tamari instead of soy sauce.
The key is to let your hot stock cool slightly before blending with the tahini and lemon. Then add the mixture back to the soup off the heat, stirring constantly.
