In preparation for today's I'm-not-leaving-my-apartment freeze, I turned to good old Martha Stewart for a healthy, hearty vegan soup recipe.

Ladies and gents, this is seriously where it's at for any time the temperatures dip below 32 degrees.

If you decide to cook a pot for yourself consider these delish recipe substitutions. I'm telling you, it came out da bomb:

-Use sweet potatoes instead of white potatoes
-Sub in kale for endive
-Use white beans instead of chickpeas
-Season with curry powder to taste
-Serve with wedges of toasted zatar-spiced whole wheat pita
