I’ve been on a bit of a quest for all things healthy, but quick lately.  One of the things that keeps me going and helps my immune system stay strong is to always have a batch of Homemade Vegetable and Rice Soup in the fridge. Another hearty soup is this yummy Sweet and Tangy Kielbasa and Noodle Soup, made in the crock pot!

It’s the simple things sometimes that can make such a big difference..like super finely chopped veggies that are packed with vitamins and simmered down so the kids will eat them! They barely know they are there!

Homemade Vegetable Soup

 

Homemade Vegetable and Rice Soup That Kids Will Love

Ingredients:

  • 1 Cup Chopped Celery
  • 1 Cup Chopped Carrots
  • 1/4 Cup Chopped Onion
  • 1 ~ 2 Cloves Minced Garlic
  • 1/2 tsp. Fines Herbs (this is a combination of herbs~ if you don’t have, you can add 1/8 tsp. basil, 1/8 tsp. thyme, 1/8 tsp. oregano ~ do a taste test)
  • 8 tsp. Chicken Bullion  ~ I use Better than Bullion
  • 1 cup Brown Rice ~ uncooked (optional)
  • 8 Cups Water

Directions:

Pour water into a large pot and add Chicken Bullion.  Most bullion bases are 1 tsp. per 1 cup of water…SO if you want to make a larger pot of soup, simply add more water and more bullion.

Homemade Vegetable Soup

While your chicken base is heating up, throw a bunch of your family favorite veggies into a blender/chopper.

I use my handy dandy Ninja chopper because it chops super fine in a matter of seconds.  The good part of chopping so fine is that if you have kids and they HATE chunky veggies in their soup, these veggies practically disappear when cooked down.

Homemade Vegetable Soup

Add the veggies, 1 cup of brown rice and herbs to Chicken Broth.

Simmer for about 1/2 hour. 

This soup makes about 6 cups.  Remember the rice will soak up about 2 cups of the water you have in the pot.  You don’t have to add rice either, I just add it to make it a bit hardier.

Rice formula ~ use 2 cups of water for every one cup of rice

My kids will gobble this right up because there are no big veggie chunks in it.  I KNOW…picky!
