My boyfriend is making some homemade soup. Ingredients: distilled water, tomatoes, potatoes, celery, mushrooms, broccoli, carrots, garlic powder, and Celtic sea salt. Yum! :biggrin:

That's sounds like a pretty good start! What kind of meat is going in it?

What the heck is that? Explain yourself :yum:
It was first thought of back before the dinosours and was the result of a hunter who spent his time getting high instead of hunting for 4-legged food. So he came home empty handed and very hungry.

Yeah, my boyfriend is vegan, so there will be no meat in his soup. It is really good soup :)...but I'm sure one could add meat if desired

So he drives a Chevy Vega that doesn't mean he can't eat meat

Well I can appreciate a good homemade soup with veggies right from the garden but I start with meat of some kind and go from there. Although I have started to like veggie stir fry a lot.

How does the base taste?
Knorr vegetable bouillon cubes might lend a richer flavour.. but absolutely more sodium.

& regular or lo-sodium veggie or tomato juice adds body & depth. or pureed, then sieved very ripe tomato. as lollie said, he may try the knorr boullion. & u can make/buy veggie &/or mushroom stocks. if sodium were an issue, omit the salt & add after cooking. has he used tempeh, portobello chunks, or presses tofu~ added pasta he's precooked, then add to each bowl before ladling soup over it.
u'd be amazed @ the difference.

Come on guys , he's vegan. You know what that means:

"Vegan: Old English word for really bad hunter". :yum:

Seriously Fairygirl, if he can cook, hold on to him. That always was my philosophy with women and it helped me get my wife 33 years ago and I haven't let her go since. :clap::clap:

Good, I was looking for a soup thread.

I made this for my church's soup kitchen today. Every Wed. we have soup, bread, and cookies for the homeless and folks that just want a bowl of soup. They also have a mail drop for people without addresses.

Today was my first soup making for this ministry. I made a minestrone added a swede and two turnips = 4 quarts beef broth, 4 potatoes, two cans tomatoes, 2 pounds burger, 4 carrots, 1 cup macaroni, 2 cans red beans, 2 cloves garlic, lots of chopped onions, salt, basil, marjoram, sage, savory, and parsley.

There was some leftover and had a bowl when I got home.

Thank you. I have to say it was well received and now what to do to equal it for my next offering?

I was thinking goulas soup but not sure how the homeless would react to paprika?:unsure:
