I love using my crock pot – it makes weeknight dinners incredibly easy. I don’t have to cook after work, since everything’s already been done.

21 Meatless Slow Cooker Soup Recipes - lifelivedcuriously.com

1. Vegetarian Lentil Tortilla Soup

This is a great vegetarian alternative to chicken tortilla soup, and it’s delicious. Lentils are a great source of fiber and extra protein. When serving, add whatever toppings you like – tortilla chips, avocado, sour cream, cheese, or extra tomato, onion, or jalapenos.

Here is the recipe for this Vegetarian Lentil Tortilla Soup.

2. Slow Cooker Mushroom Barley Stew

Mhmm, this is a hearty, delicious stew. Start this up on a cold winter day before heading to work, and come home to a nice warm dinner. This is an incredibly easy recipe with only 10 ingredients. It goes great with some toasted bread with butter.

Here is the recipe for this Slow Cooker Mushroom Barley Stew.

3. Crock Pot Spinach Tortellini Soup

This creamy soup isn’t the healthiest on this list. But, if you’re looking for comfort food, look no further. Substitute vegetable broth for the chicken broth to make it truly vegetarian.

This recipe is perfect for a cold day curled up on the couch. Mmmm, and if you really want comfort, serve garlic bread or bread sticks on the side.

Here is the recipe for this Crock Pot Spinach Tortellini Soup.

4. Crock Pot Butternut Squash Soup

This soup is pretty much autumn in a bowl. This smooth, creamy mix of butternut squash, apples, cinnamon, and coconut milk will have you wanting more. This would go great with a nice warm glass of apple cider – or a fall-flavored *adult* beverage.

Here is the recipe for this Crock Pot Butternut Squash Soup.

5. Slow Cooker Wild Rice Vegetable Soup

Mmmm, what a great slow-cooker vegetarian soup recipe this is. When I first turned vegetarian, I struggled for months to find an alternative recipe I liked to chicken wild rice soup. This one hit the spot! Full of delicious veggies and no cream. Enjoy!

Here is the recipe for this Slow Cooker Wild Rice Vegetable Soup.

6. Vegan Lentil Soup with Cauliflower and Rice

I have been on a total cauliflower kick lately. It’s just so delicious and nutritious! This is a very simple crock pot vegetarian soup recipe, with few ingredients. This is a great recipe to make if you’re in between grocery trips and scanning the cupboards for an easy dinner (as long as you have cauliflower!).

Here is the recipe for this Vegan Lentil Soup.

7. Gingery Tofu Slow Cooker Soup

I admittedly forget about “broth-y” soups. As in I’ve really never made any, although I really should. This is an incredibly healthy soup loaded with a ton of ginger and lemon.

It’s also nice to see a soup with tofu in it, as that’s pretty unusual for the crock pot. You’ll feel amazing after eating this soup!

8. African Inspired Peanut Crock Pot Soup

This crock pot vegetarian soup recipe might sound weird, but don’t knock it til you try it. Peanut or “groundnut” soup is popular in many African countries, and it’s absolutely delicious. Step outside of your comfort zone with this spicy, protein-packed crock pot vegetarian soup.

9. Crockpot Taco Soup

Chickpeas are one of my absolute favorite sources of protein. They’re incredibly versatile and can be flavored in almost any way to make a great meat substitute. Forget the ground beef tacos, here is a delicious, warm, and spicy vegetarian taco soup to kick those taco cravings.

Here is the recipe for this Crockpot Taco Soup.

10. Mexican Street Corn Soup

Mmmm, fresh corn is totally underrated. This soup showcases its amazing flavor and crunch while incorporating authentic Mexican flavors. There’s not much protein in this recipe though, so it might work best as a side or in conjunction with a sandwich.

Here is the recipe for this Mexican Street Corn Soup.

11. Slow Cooker Leek and Potato Soup

Repeat after me: potatoes, butter, and heavy cream. Those aren’t the only 3 ingredients, but how could you pass this up after hearing that?

Aside from potatoes, this soup is jam-packed with vegetables, making it a healthier alternative to creamy potato soup. This vegetarian slow cooker recipe is perfect for cold, winter days.

12. Slow Cooker Ginger Carrot Soup

This delicious soup is full of immune-boosting vitamins and minerals. Plus, it’s vegan! The carrot, ginger, and coconut milk flavors blend together quite well, and you’ll certainly be wanting a second bowl.

Here is the recipe for this Slow Cooker Ginger Carrot Soup.

13. Vegetarian Crock Pot Lasagna Soup

Even when I wasn’t vegetarian, I was never a big fan of meaty lasagna. I much-preferred vegetable lasagna… well now there’s a soup for it. This has all of the same cheesy noodles and vegetable goodness as regular lasagna but without the messy hassle of layering everything.

Here is the recipe for this Crock Pot Lasagna Soup.

14. Crock Pot Broccoli and Cheese Soup

Personally, I am not a fan of broccoli and cheese soup. BUT, I know there are a lot of people out there who love it (shout out to my boyfriend), so here you go. Broccoli, onions, carrots, cheese, broth, and spices – not too much work for such a classic American comfort food.

Here is the recipe for this Crock Pot Broccoli and Cheese Soup.

15. Slow Cooker Vegetarian Sweet Potato Chili

This is the easiest chili recipe out there! It’s so hearty and flavorful that you definitely won’t miss the meat. The sweet potatoes add a nice extra touch of extra vegetables to go with the beans. Spice it up a little by adding some chopped pickled jalapenos.

Here is the recipe for this Vegetarian Sweet Potato Chili.

16. Creamy Wild Mushroom Soup

MUSHROOMS! You either love them or hate them, and I’m a lover. I can never ever get enough mushrooms, and this soup certainly delivers on that front.

2 pounds of assorted mushrooms, carrots, onions, milk, butter, and flour – my mouth is watering just thinking about it. This is one of my absolute favorite crock pot vegetarian soup recipes.

Here is the recipe for this Creamy Wild Mushroom Soup.

17. Crock Pot Chickpea Noodle Soup

If you love chicken noodle soup, this a great vegetarian alternative. Chickpeas provide a similar taste to chicken and are a great source of protein. The classic American comfort soup with a vegetarian twist – yum.

Here is the recipe for this Chickpea Noodle Soup.

18. Slow Cooker Chipotle Corn Chowder

Corn seems to be underrated and underutilized in soups. It adds a nice crispy crunch and a touch of sweetness to any soup recipe. The adobo chiles contribute a nice slow heat – if you don’t like spicy, avoid this soup. This is absolutely one of my favorite crock pot vegetarian soup recipes.

Here is the recipe for this Chipotle Corn Chowder.

19. Crock Pot Black Bean Soup

Black beans are an excellent source of protein and fiber, especially if you don’t eat meat. You can adjust the spiciness of this soup by adding more or less red pepper flakes. This soup goes excellently over rice, with cheese on top, or garnished with cilantro, sour cream, or salsa.

Here is the recipe for this Black Bean Soup.

20. Crock Pot Tomato Soup

Tomato soup is the ultimate comfort food. This recipe is super easy and perfect for a yummy weeknight dinner.

Add some grilled cheese on the side and crackers on top, and everyone in the family will be happy. Also, it’s incredibly low-calorie, if that’s something you’re watching.

21. Slow Cooker Potato Soup

This is full-on potato, heavy cream, butter, flour, cheese, sour cream carb and fat-loaded goodness. Sometimes you need to treat yourself, and if you decide to do that in soup form, this is the perfect recipe for you.

To keep it vegetarian, omit the bacon and switch the chicken broth to vegetable broth. I like to add frozen corn to my potato soup too.

These are not all vegetarian recipes. #21 calls for chicken broth. I haven't checked the others.

Hi Holly! I did not notice, but personally do just automatically substitute vegetable broth in any recipe that calls for chicken broth. I will certainly make a note in the article, though. Thanks for the heads up!

I tried the cannellini bean soup. I didn't have any potatoes but I didn't miss it. I added a bay leaf, carrots, leeks and a few parmesan rind clippings and it was AMAZING!!! Don't leave out the olive oil dressing, it's definitely a must!! It came together so quick. I will be making this again and again?! Thnx
