Ingredients

Panera 10 Vegetable Soup Recipe (Copycat) (2)

The ingredient list is a long one, but most of the ingredients are easy-to-find pantry staples. Let's talk about the key ingredients.

  • Vegetables: We used yellow onion, carrots, celery, red and yellow bell pepper, poblano pepper, spinach, garlic, and frozen green peas.
  • Canned Vegetables: We used fire roasted tomatoes and fire roasted yellow corn.
  • Spices: We used onion and garlic powder, aleppo chili, cumin, sea salt, white pepper, cumin, rosemary, basil, and bay leaves (fresh or dried).
  • Acids: We used rice vinegar, freshly squeezed lime juice, and freshly sliced lemon wheels.
  • Grains & Seeds: We used sprouted brown rice and the chia seeds (These ingredients help thicken the soup, so it's less brothy.)

See recipe card for full information on ingredients and quantities.

Variations

  • Need this keto friendly? Add Parmesan cheese and avocado slices to increase the fat.
  • Can't find sprouted short grain brown rice? Swap it out with barley.
  • Can't find dried aleppo chili powder? Swap it out with paprika and a bit of cayenne pepper.
  • Can't find dried lemon peel? Swap it out with 1 teaspoon of lemon zest and add it at the end.
  • Can't find fire roasted tomatoes or corn? Swap it out with regular tomatoes and corn, but realize it will lose some flavor.

Did Panera discontinue 10 vegetable soup?

Ten vegetable soup was introduced in January 2019 at all restaurants across the United States. It was taken off the menu at our local Panera Bread sometime in 2020.

Is the 10 vegetable soup from Panera healthy?

Yes, it's very healthy and had the lowest calorie count out all Panera Bread's soups. Panera's one cup serving size contains 60 calories and ours has 166, but theirs is more brothy and less filling than our copycat recipe.

Yes, the main reason they put the 10 vegetable soup on the menu in January 2019 was to have a vegan option for their customers. It is plant-based and Mediterranean diet approved.

Can you freeze 10 Panera 10 vegetable soup?

Yes, you absolutely can. This recipe makes 15 cups which is a lot, so if you can't eat it all freeze any leftovers for up to 3 months.

Serve

Panera serves this entree with a choice of sourdough bread bowl for an upcharge, a bag of kettle chips, a piece of baguette, or an apple.

Some serving suggestions to use at home are a slice of our hearty multigrain bread, or our easy garlic toast. A light refreshing side salad like our copycat Chick-fil-A side salad or our copycat Chick-fil-A fruit cup recipe would also round out the meal.

Complete the meal by serving one of these 8 Panera copycat dessert recipes after you enjoy your soup.

    I've made this recipe TONS of times. Loved it enough that I figured I should leave a review! It's easy to make, and I often make a double batch and freeze it. Most of the time, I eat it with a couple rolls of bread dipped in it, but if I don't have bread on hand, I'll put macaroni in it to make it extra filling. Absolutely delicious, well done.
