Mondays can often be a bit hectic and we all can benefit from time-saving methods. One place to save time is in the kitchen! Here is a delicious recipe that is easy to make and especially delicious in the colder months. It is mild and many kids love this-it's a great way to get them (and us) to eat veggies! This is adapted from the cookbook, Nourishing Traditions, by Sally Fallon...
Creamy Vegetable Soup
4 TBS butter
1-2 yellow onions
1 16-oz bag of baby carrots
1 lb zucchini
3-6 red potatoes
6-8 cups chicken broth
1 tsp sea salt
First, chop the onions and add those, carrots and butter to a big soup pot. Cook on medium-low to let the onions and carrots soften, for about 15 minutes. Next chop the potatoes up and add those and the broth to the pot. Turn up the heat and let this boil for about 10-15 minutes. Chop zucchini, add to the pot, and let it cook in the pot for about 10 minutes. Add the sea salt. Lastly, blend soup using a hand blender or by putting batches of soup through your blender. This will result in a nice, creamy texture.
You can serve this up with a bit of sour cream on top, and some bread or a meat course on the side. I hope you enjoy this soup and that it warms you right up! :)
