Hearty Healthy soup


If you're in Houston today, you'd know it's a perfect day for a hearty hot soup!

Here's what i made.


1 clove of garlic
1 tbsp of oil
whatever vegetables you have in your fridge.
I used:

cabbage
carrots
onions
asparagus
zucchini
half a can of petite diced tomatoes
Salt and pepper
about 1 tbsp. of BEEF/CHICKEN BOUILLON (to taste)

for meat I used:
chicken
sausages (brats)

1. heat oil in pot
2. stir diced garlic and sliced onions with carrots or any other "hard" veggies
3. add diced chicken (or you can use already cooked and shredded chicken-add at the end)
4. add water (however you much you want)
5. add all other veggies
6. Salt and pepper
7. add a tbsp or so of BEEF/CHICKEN BOUILLON (to taste)
let them cook for about 20min.


tip: cook harder veggies (carrots) the longest time. I usually toss the hard veggies in at the beginning for 10min., then add softer veggies like zucchinis in the next 10min. with 20min boiling time, you should have a nicely texturized (not mushy) veggie soup!
