Introduction

I find it difficult (especially in winter) to get my quota of veggies in. I love this soup.... Makes 14-1 cup servings at about 125 cal per cup and a whole lot of flavour and vitamins.... For a bit of calcium add 1 Tbsp fresh grate parmesan. (Adds 23 extra calories) I find it difficult (especially in winter) to get my quota of veggies in. I love this soup....

Ingredients

    Ingredients:
    Onions, raw, 1 cup, chopped
    Garlic, 2 tsp
    Sunflower Oil (oleic), 1 tbsp
    Zucchini, 2 cup, sliced
    *Potato, raw, 2 cup diced
    Peppers, sweet, red, raw, sliced, .5 cup
    Carrots, raw, 1.5 cup, grated
    Cabbage, fresh, 2 cup, shredded
    Chicken Broth, 4 cup (8 fl oz)
    Green Beans (snap), 2 cup
    Basil, 2 tbsp
    Dill weed, fresh, .5 cup sprigs
    Thyme, fresh, 3 tsp
    Cream of Mushroom Soup, 1 can (10.75 oz)
    *Sun-Vista Red Kidney Beans, 19 oz can
    Stewed Tomatoes, Canned, No salt, 796 grams can
    Pepper, black, .5 tsp

Directions

Fry onion and garlic in oil add all fresh vegetables, except green beans. Saute then add chicken broth and simmer until zucchini is cooked. (At this point I use my hand blender and blend to chop veggies a bit & thicken the soup) Then add the chopped canned tomato, and ( I used white kidney beans, but any favourite bean would be good) heat, then add the cream of mushroom soup, green beans, and chopped herbs. Simmer for 20 minutes longer and enjoy. Flavour improves next day.
You can substitute what veggies you have available or prefer, but of course flavours change....
