Today it is freezing and gray. Again. My immune system is confused and hanging on and so are my plants. I am being productive but really I just want to stay in and cuddle and watch the winter olympics. At lunchtime I was craving a warm bowl of soup- so I got curious in my kitchen and made it happen.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a happy healthy veggie comfort soup recipe! Perfect for a cold winter day or to provide warmth and relief to those suffering from the common cold.<\/p>\n<p>I will post what I made today but the beauty of this guy is using what you have in your pantry or fridge. Turn forgotten produce into cold weather magic. I had some beautiful yukon gold potatoes and a zucchini and it started there. Just like in your yoga practice- make it your own. Not vegetarian? Use your meaty broth or bouillon whatever its called. \u00a0Add chicken and find what tastes good.<\/p>\n<p>So, take a look in your fridge, make do, give thanks, waste not and cook with love.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/yogawadriene.wpengine.com\/vegetable-comfort-soup\/recipie\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2112\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-2112\" alt=\"recipie\" src=\"http:\/\/yogawadriene.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/recipie--768x1024.jpg\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/yogawithadriene.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/recipie--768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/yogawithadriene.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/recipie--225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/yogawithadriene.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/recipie-.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>In a large pot heat your oil. I used abut 4 teaspoons of oil. I'm not sure if that is a little or a lot. I \"eye\" a lot of stuff. I should ask my friend Hilah over at <a href=\"http:\/\/hilahcooking.com\/\">Hilah Cooking<\/a> about this. I never know how much oil to start out with.<\/li>\n<li>Heat oil on medium, then add your onions and herbs of choice. If you don't have herbs on hand- a little salt and pepper is great.<\/li>\n<li>Cook the onions till they are translucent and make your kitchen smell like heaven. About 5 min.<\/li>\n<li>Add carrots and garlic. Again, witness how they almost instantly make your home smell like a magical heaven. About 2 min.<\/li>\n<li>Add celery, then zucchini and any other on hand heartier veggies that you might be adding- like bell peppers or cabbage maybe? I also used a little bit of white cooking wine here for acidity. See, I do learn a lot from TOP CHEF. About 4 min here.<\/li>\n<li>Now add your broth and your potatoes and any other non-hearty quick-to-cook veggies and any leafy greens like kale here. I also had some basil that needed to be used so I ribboned it and threw it in the pot as well.<\/li>\n<li>Let the soup come to a boil then turn town your heat and let it simmer for 15-30 min. Add a little water if you like here- pending if you want a soup or a stew.<\/li>\n<li>Salt-n-pepper to taste.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>While I was making the soup I had some rice in the rice cooker.
