Zoup

Vegetable Soup:

4 Stalks Celery*
1.5 cups Brown Jasmine Rice*
1 head Cauliflower*
1 head and stalk Broccoli*
3 handfuls mini-Carrots*
2 sweet yellow Onions*
1L Imagine Potato and Leek Soup*
1L Sweet Potato Soup*
2 cans Hunt's Tomato Sauce
1 can Garbanzo Beans
2.5 cups Green Peas*
2 tbsp Parsley
1 tbsp Seasoning Salt

Cut the larger ingredients into pieces approximately the size of sugar cubes or a bit smaller. Cut the onion a bit smaller yet, unless yu like crunchy onion. I peeled the broccoli stalk with a potato peeler and diced it. Throw it all in a crockpot and let it cook for ~4 hours. I throw the rice in uncooked and let it swell and thicken the soup while the other vegetables are softening.

Last time I made this I used different ratios, left out rice, celery and carrots, and had green onion and corn instead.

1) All ingredients marked * are organic.
2) All measurements are approximate. I don't measure when I cook.
3) I add a lot of black pepper by the bowl. I don't add it when cooking in case other people want to eat it too!
