Ingredients

    1 Tbs. unsalted butter
    1/2 cup carrots, peeled and chopped
    1/2 cup onion, chopped
    1/2 cup celery, chopped
    1/2 cup leeks, only the white part, chopped

    1/2 tsp. fresh thyme
    1 fl. oz dry red wine

Directions

1. Melt the butter in a stock pot over medium heat. Add carrots, onions, leeks, garlic, green beans, and celery. Cook and stir until tender, but not browned, about 10 minutes. Stir in wine, thyme and mushrooms, and continue cooking until mushrooms are soft, about 5 minutes.
2. Mix granules and warm water until dissolved then pour into the pot, and season with salt and pepper. Cover, and simmer over low heat for 30 minutes.

FOOTNOTES
The original author suggested adding prepared wild rice into the soup at the end of cooking. I have not yet tried this but will next time.
