I decided to use an Imagine soup and add to it to make my own version of soup today. I chopped and added my veggies to it and while it was cooking was looking over the carton more, and noticed that it said "PARVE, GLUTEN FREE, ORGANIC" - so that's a lot of info.... so why not bother to label it veg*n also? Then I became alarmed, thinking of the 'natural ingredients' listed and called them. At first the lady on the phone was just giving me the "prepriotory ingredients" bull, but after I kept complaining relentlessly, she finally bothered to look on her computer and what do you know? Many of their soups are not only vegetarian, but VEGAN! I find these at my Krogers on the organics shelf in a carton.
Here they are:

So, although several different ones would work well for this, I had this one today!:
1//2 BOX(shake well) Imagine Lt Sodium Red Bliss Potato & Roasted Garlic Soup
Added:
C button mushrooms that have been washed&dried with paper towel, destemmed & sliced
2 brocolli trees, stems cut off and tops cut apart
1 slc of onion, diced reallly small, since it was not pre-sauteed
3-4 grinds from my pepper grinder
1/4 tsp of mineral sea-salt
sprinkle across surface of onion powder
T nutritional yeast
*I like button mushrooms because they are enclosed while the stem is on and you can clean them better than mushrooms with open vents under the cap
*I only used half box to see how it would turn out. If you use the whole box, double everything I added.
