Even kids who don't care for vegetable soup may enjoy this one. Very good flavor. Sometimes I use crushed tomatoes with garlic, onion, or basil now that they're available. Turkey smoked sausage is great in this recipe!
Grated fresh ginger and soy sauce team up to make a snappy sauce for the meat and vegetables in this recipe. Another time, substitute pork or lamb for the beef.
A great side dish for fennel lovers, originally from a friend in Israel. I have used water instead of broth, with some added salt and seasoning. I have also replaced the mustard seed with regular mustard.
Large pearls of Israeli couscous combine with garbanzo beans, feta cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, and Greek olives to make a side dish or light main dish that's perfect for a hot summer's day.
Corn tortillas provide this soup with both its flavor and texture. It's a fast-growing favorite in the Southeast. I especially like this recipe because it can be made quickly and easily and it can serve as an appetizer or a main dish.
I love gardening and have a big pumpkin patch. A few years ago when our harvest was very plentiful, I experimented and came up with this recipe. My family just loves this soup.
