Directions


I make this soup about once a week
during the cold months when the
produce selection here is not so
great. The nutrition packed into this
super hardy soup is hard to beat! Get
out your big soup pot!
Bring Vegetable Stock to a boil in
large soup/stock pot. Stir in Brown
Rice, and turn heat to med / med-high
(you're going for a simmer / slow
boil). Stir in tomatoes (dump juice
in along with them), corn, kidney
beans, and the veggies you've chosen
(don't be stingy!). Now stir in the
nutritional ueast, and textured soy protein.
Evaluate the amount of veg. stock in
the soup - if you want it to be
thinner add some water (1 Cup at a
time). The soup will thicken
overnight.
Now the fun part! Throw in the Bay
Leaves. Peel and mince / press the
garlic and stir in. Add the dry
spices, and let simmer for a few
minutes - then taste broth add more
spices if it needs some more oomph.
You may need to add salt - if so, do
it slowly, trying a little broth after
each addition. Soup is ready when
rice and any root veg. chunks you may
have added are fully cooked.
Hope you enjoy!
