Spent the morning with my lovely Hamilton Family <3 and came home to the predicament...what to make for lunch? With a starving boyfriend hovering around the kitchen rifling through cupboards, he announced his choice.
Soup.
Just what I wanted! So we did a fridge raid and started choppin'. Jake ended up taking over, and doing his chef thing, while I prepped dinner.
So cute :)
Quickie Veggie Soup
Prep Time: 15 Minutes
Cook Time: 15-30 Minutes
Cooking Stuffs:
8-10 Cups Veggie Soup Base (the choices on this one are endless.)
4 Carrots, rinsed&chopped
3 Cups Kale, rinsed&chopped
1 Cup Spinach, rinsed&chopped
4 stalks Celery, rinsed&chopped
4 Tablespoons Soy Sauce
1 Tablespoon chopped garlic
1 Teaspoon pepper
2 Cups rice or barley, dry
1 Cup Quinoa, dry
In a large pot, start your veggie soup base on low heat. Rinse and chop all your vegetables, and add them to your pot, stirring every so often. Mix in the soy sauce, pepper and garlic, and bring soup to a boil. When it has reached boiling, add the rice & quinoa allowing to cook for 8-10 minutes. Stir regularly while the rice/quinoa is cooking. When fully cooked, turn the soup to simmer, and serve!
The Manda Version:
Dish your soup, serve with tortilla chips.
The Jake Version:
Dish your soup. Add 1 slice of soy mozzarella cheese & 10-15 crushed saltine crackers to it and mix in well. Top of with 2 teaspoons of chili powder, stir in.
*Spicy, but has a very creamy taste. Was quite tasty!
With Love,
