Title: Potato-Vegetable Chowder
Categories: Vegetarian Vegan Soup
Yield: 8 Servings
| 5 | c | Vegetable broth (water is fine; but not as tasty) |
| 1 | c | Tomato or vegetable juice |
| 1 | c | Tomatoes; peeled; cut in small pieces |
| 1 | c | Carrots; chopped |
| 1 | c | Green beans or yellow wax beans |
| 1 | c | Onions; finely chopped |
| 1 | c | Zucchini or yellow squash thinly sliced |
| 1 | c | Leek; chopped |
| 2 | c | Potatoes, red; diced |
| 1 | Cheesecloth bag of fresh herbs of choice (parsley basil; etc | |
| 2 | ts | Salt |
Bring liquid to boil in a deep soup kettle. Add all vegetables and seasonings. Turn down heat to simmer and partially cover the pot. Simmer until vegetables are tender. Serve hot with crusty whole wheat bread and a light fruit dessert.
Variation: Almost any vegetable but onions, tomatoes, and the potatoes can be substituted for another vegetable. Don't use the cabbage family because the flavor is too radically changed. Green peas and baby lima beans are a great addition, as are corn kernels (about 1/2 cup).
