Vegan Cesnecka
Cesnecka (aka Czech garlic soup) is a common starter in the Czech Republic. Czech cuisine is not exactly the most vegan-friendly, and most recipes call for loads of lard, butter, and chicken/beef broth. So here's my veganized version that is much more heart-healthy and Czech-approved! Garnish with vegan cheese, if you like.

Cook's Notes:
You can also use regular veggie bouillon or veggie stock, but the chicken flavor is more savory.
Feel free to use store-bought croutons in place of homemade. When making homemade, you can use olive oil in place of vegan butter.
