One of my twin daughters has been home sick with a bad cold, so today is another soup recipe. She is the meat eater and unfortunately gets sick much more often than my vegetarian daughter. So to help her get well I've been making lots of soup this last week, all of course vegetarian. Carrots, celery, onions, garlic and green beans all loaded with healthy nutrients, and homemade or good quality store bought organic broth are comforting when you are under the weather. I garnished this with a few sprigs of fresh dill from my backyard. This makes a large pot of soup and it disappears quickly at my house.
