vegan soup
this is one of my favorite soups of all time!! it's from my The New Farm Vegetarian Cookbook from 1975...published by The New Farm a hippy commune in I believe Tennessee....it still exists, though not as a commune anymore....
all the recipes are vegan and they are awesome!! this recipe calls for nutritional yeast....you ensure you buy nutritional yeast! a health food store by me wrongly sells a mix of brewer's yeast and i dunno what and claims it is nutritional yeast and IT IS NOT! it must saccharomyces cerevisiae...it has a yellow or gold color to it....it is high in protein and essential amino acids....it is rather expensive, but a little goes a long way....i'll post some other recipes with nutritional yeast if anyone is interested...
Roberta's Good Soup
saute 1 medium onion (diced) in 3 Tbsp. oil. Add the onion to:
5 cups boiling water
1 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. black pepper
1/4 tsp. celery seed
1/4 cup dry TVP
1 tsp. soy sauce
Simmer for 5 minutes. Add:
1/2 cup nutritional yeast flakes
1 1/2 Tbsp. margarine
2 cups cooked noodles or 1-1 1/2 cups cooked rice
This is a quick and easy soup to make and kids love it. Serve with sprouts and/or crackers.
Notes from ME....
i saute the onion in a dutch oven, then i just dump 5 cups of water into that pot and let it come to a boil and add the other ingredients and then let that simmer for 5 minutes or so....then i add the nutritional yeast, margarine and UNCOOKED noodles and let it simmer for 20 or so minutes....it saves pots (don't have to cook the noodles separate! :)
i have never made this with rice, so i dunno how it would be!
