- Its easy to combine a one-pot soup meal which will take the refrigerateoff a nippy fall night. With the following master recipe, you can mix and match the broth, vegetables, herbs, meat or possibly protein, a quick-cooking grain, and, if you like, legumes, to come up with limitless variations. For example, use chicken broth, celery, carrots, thyme, white chicken meat, and minature macaroni for traditional chicken-noodle soup. Or possibly for a hearty vegetarian soup, use vegetable broth, minced fresh spinach, stewed tomatoes, oregano, tofu, white rice, and cannellini beans.
- Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add in onion and garlic, and saute/fry for 2 min. Add in the broth, vegetables, and dry herbs, and bring to a boil. Add in the meat or possibly protein and quick-cooking grain, and simmer for approximately 12 min; or possibly till the meat and grains are tender. Fold in beans if using, and continue heating for 2 min. Stir in fresh parsley, and ladle into four soup dishes. Serve with warm, crusty bread and a hot fruit compote for dessert.
