Food Cozy Veggies Soup (Vegan) | 12 Months and Above | 200g

Picture a rainy afternoon in your Irish kitchen, steam rising from a pot as your toddler taps their spoon rhythmically on the table—eyes wide with anticipation. Hug in a Bowl’s Cozy Veggies Soup is here to wrap them in warmth. Designed for little ones 12 months and older, this vegan hug in a bowl combines creamy organic potatoes, sweet organic carrots, and protein-packed lentilles vertes, all swimming alongside tiny orzo pasta and nutty millet in a gently herbed broth. Each spoonful is a journey: chickpeas add playful texture, leeks whisper mild sweetness, and the pasta curls like edible confetti, inviting tiny hands to explore.

We’ve balanced textures to nurture growing confidence: soft veggies melt on the tongue, while millet and orzo offer just enough resistance to strengthen chewing skills. Our secret? Simmering organic leeks and herbs until they sing in harmony, creating a broth that tastes like a grandmother’s embrace—comforting, nourishing, and full of love.

Rushed for time? Heat in 3 minutes (stovetop or microwave), freeing you to savor those fleeting giggles or steal a quiet sip of tea. When your little one leans in for “another bite,” you’ll know they’re soaking up iron for energy, fiber for happy digestion, and plant-powered fuel for their next big adventure.
