the easiest way to make soup I learned from my mother, very dietic and vegan is:
1)quickly chop up all the veggies you want to use
2)throw in the pot and let steam 2 or 3 minutes deppending how hard they are
3)in the meantime boil about 6 cups of water or more(it depends on how much you are making and if you want it chukny or mostly liquid)
4) when water boils pour it into the pot and season (I never put salt just chillipepper chunks ) add a spoon of olive oil, and some freshly chopped celery like parsley!. let stand 1 minute then turn off the heat!. et voilaWww@FoodAQ@Com
