Do you know a vegetarian soup recipe that's really good?

Something you personally have made, not a random one from online please!Do you know a vegetarian soup recipe that's really good?
I make this soup. Grate one zucchini, one carrot, and one parsnip with a diced onion. Put into a pot with red lentils and top with cold water. Simmer for 30 minutes then add two packets of french onion soup mix but mix with a cup of water. Add to soup and cook for another ten minutes.Do you know a vegetarian soup recipe that's really good?
Lots -- Tzatsiki, made with plain yogurt and cucumbers in the summer. A heart lentil soup when it's cold out. Italian Sausage Soup (with Morningstar Farm's Links) from the Garlic Cookbook just about any old time. Black bean soup, bean-barley soup, cream of sunchoke soup. But here's one of the simplest and easiest, and it's mighty tasty, too!





Leek and Potato Soup





3 leeks, washed and sliced


1 1/2 pounds of potatoes, peeled and diced


2 tblsps. butter or vegan margarine


1 quart light vegetable stick


3-4 tblsps. cream or nondairy cream (optional)


salt and pepper





Saute the leeks and potatoes gently in the butter, covered, for ten minutes, stirring often. Cook ten minutes further, without browning, stirring occasionally. Add the stock, stir, then simmer for another ten minutes until the vegetables are tender. Puree them in a blender, adding the cream, if using. Season to taste with salt and pepper.





I like this soup steaming hot, but you can also serve it chilled as Vichysoisse, adding milk or soy milk instead of the stock. Sprinkle with a touch of nutmeg before serving.





Enjoy!
Ingredients:


6 cups vegetable broth


2 cups mushrooms, sliced (Chinese wood ear mushrooms or shiitake are best)


1 small can bamboo shoots


1 small can water chestnuts


2 tbsp soy sauce


1/2 tsp pepper


1 tsp hot sauce


2 tbsp vinegar


3 cloves garlic, minced


1/2 cup scallions (green onions), sliced


2 tbsp chili oil


Preparation:


Bring vegetable broth to a simmer and add all the ingredients, except the scallions and chili oil.


Allow to simmer for at least 20 minutes.





Add the scallions and simmer for about 5 more minutes. Stir in the chili oil.





Add additional soy sauce, hot sauce or vinegar to taste.





Enjoy your vegetarian Chinese hot and sour soup!





It is actually good for cold and cough. You can add sum more pepper if you want it to be more spicy. More the pepper more the better.
I make a huge pot of homemade veggie soup at least once a week. It's vegan.





1 large can of V8 juice


1/2 an onion, diced


3 red potatoes, diced small


2 zucchini, diced


2 cloves of garlic, minced


2 carrots, chopped


2 stalks of celery, diced or minced


1 large can of diced tomatoes


1/2 bag of frozen corn


1/2 bag of frozen baby green lima beans


1/2 bag of frozen green beans


1/2 cup of barley


1 Tablespoon of Bragg's liquid aminos


Any seasonings you like, I usually go with just dash of salt, a lot of pepper and some Mrs. Dash





Sometimes, I add some Morningstar Crumbles.





Top off with water if the pot isn't full at this point, I'll usually add a tablespoon of vegetable base or a veggie bullion cube if I add much water.





Bring to a boil, let simmer for around 30 minutes to let the barley cook. This soup freezes beautifully.
