CSA soup

What to do with all these fall veggies? Make soup! All local and super fresh.
I’m sure it would be good chunky, but I’m a real a fan of the potage. A mix of veggies and a potato cooked on the stove top, then thrown into the vita-mix to make a super smooth creamy soup. Oh so satisfying on a fall weekend afternoon.

There’s no recipe besides use what you have and what you like.

Today’s soup is a mix of onions, carrots, celery, leeks, cauliflower, carnival squash, and potato. I also used some broth I made last week, so it was really rich and vegetabley. The only seasoning I used was about 1 tsp spike and a little parsley on top.

Add a salad and some bread with Dr. Cow cashew cheese and you’ve got a light, but satisfying meal. I always feel very French when I have a nice potage with salad and bread.
I’m also watching Luc Besson’s The Fifth Element on HBO and I forget just how much I like this movie. The futuristic fashion is fantastic and I love the cat that sits around and watches TV all day.

  2. Just look at the color of that soup! It's so smooth and creamy too. If I were to make that in my Magic Bullet I would end up with a big chunky-monkey bowl of lumpiness.
