Potato-vegetable chowder (vrg)

8 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
5 cups Vegetable broth (water is
Fine, but
Not as tasty)
1 cup Tomato or vegetable juice
1 cup Peeled tomatoes, cut in
small Pieces
1 cup Carrots, chopped
1 cup Green beans or yellow wax
Beans
1 cup Onions, finely chopped
1 cup Zucchin or yellow squash,
Thinly sliced
1 cup Leek, chopped
2 cups Unpeeled red potatoes,
Diced
1 Cheesecloth bag of fresh
Erbs of choice
(parsley, basil, etc.)
2 teaspoons Salt

Directions

Bring liquid to boil in a deep soup kettle. Add all vegetables and seasonings. Turn down heat to simmer and partially cover the pot.

Simmer until vegetables are tender. Serve hot with crusty whole wheat bread and a light fruit dessert.

Variation: Almost any vegetable but onions, tomatoes, and the potatoes can be substituted for another vegetable. Don't use the cabbage family because the flavor is too radically changed. Green peas and baby lima beans are a great addition, as is ½ cup of corn kernels.
