Vegetable Soup

The chill in the air made me want something warm and cozy.  After scanning the fridge, realizing I really need to grocery shop, I found I had just the right ingredients to make a batch of vegetable soup.

Here’s what was in it:

Here I have onions, celery, carrots, potatoes, white kidney beans, peas, corn, broccoli, cauliflower,diced tomatoes and my favorite soup starter,”Better Than Bouillon”.

I always soften my onion, celery, carrots, and potatoes in olive oil.  Then I add a hefty handful of Italian seasoning, a few bay leaves, and then, 1 large can of diced tomatoes.   Then I add 2 cans of water from the tomato cans and two tbsp. bouillon base.  Once it comes to a slow boil I add my frozen veggies and keep on low 15 minutes.  I also add a handful of barley at the end, I put the lid on and let it go another 10 minutes.  Turn off to rest.  Serve hot with a chunk of whole grain bread on the side.

Nice warm lunch.
