Kathies Good Soup Recipes

SERIOUSLY GOOD VEGETABLE SOUP

Steps:

• Warm 3 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large Dutch oven or soup pot over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the chopped onion, carrot, celery, seasonal vegetables and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Cook, stirring often, until the onion has softened and is turning translucent, about 6 to 8 minutes.
• Add the garlic, curry powder and thyme. Cook until fragrant while stirring frequently, about 1 minute. Pour in the diced tomatoes with their juices and cook for a few more minutes, stirring often.
• Pour in the broth and water. Add 1/2 teaspoon more salt, 2 bay leaves and the red pepper flakes. Season generously with freshly ground black pepper. Raise the heat and bring the mixture to a boil, then partially cover the pot and reduce heat to maintain a gentle simmer.
• Cook for 25 minutes, then remove the lid and add the chopped greens. Continue simmering for 5 minutes or more, until the greens have softened to your liking.
• Remove the pot from heat and remove the bay leaves. Stir in the lemon juice and remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Taste and season with more salt, pepper and/or red pepper flakes. (You might need up to ½ teaspoon more salt, depending on your vegetable broth and your personal preferences.) Divide into bowls and enjoy.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
• Place the squash, apple and onion on the baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss to combine. Roast in the oven until fork tender, 40 to 45 minutes.
• Make a sachet with the garlic, thyme, and bay leaf (tied in a bundle using cheesecloth and twine). Bring the chicken broth and sachet to a low boil in a stockpot over high heat. Add the squash, apple, and onion. Lower the heat to a simmer and cook about 20 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and remove the sachet. Use an immersion blender, or transfer to a blender in batches, and blend until smooth and creamy. Season the soup with additional salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.

CHIPOTLE CARROT SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a Dutch oven or large, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently, until the onion starts to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic, cumin, and adobo and cook until very fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the carrots, salt and pepper to taste and stir until everything is fully coated. Pour in the stock. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to maintain a simmer. Cook for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the carrots are tender. Remove from heat. Transfer the soup to a blender or use an immersion blender to blend until smooth. Add the lime juice.
• Top each serving with pumpkin seeds, cheese, and cilantro.
