What to do with all these fall veggies? Make soup! All local and super fresh.
I'm sure it would be good chunky, but I'm a real a fan of the potage. A mix of veggies and a potato cooked on the stove top, then thrown into the vita-mix to make a super smooth creamy soup. Oh so satisfying on a fall weekend afternoon.

Today's soup is a mix of onions, carrots, celery, leeks, cauliflower, carnival squash, and potato. I also used some broth I made last week, so it was really rich and vegetabley. The only seasoning I used was about 1 tsp spike and a little parsley on top.
Add a salad 
and some bread with Dr. Cow cashew cheese 
and you've got a light, but satisfying meal. I always feel very French when I have a nice potage with salad and bread.

I'm also watching Luc Besson's The Fifth Element on HBO and I forget just how much I like this movie. The futuristic fashion is fantastic and I love the cat that sits around and watches TV all day.
i haven't seen The Fifth Element in years - that's actually one of dan's favorite movies. i think it is because he thinks Mia is hot! ah ha ha!
ReplyDeleteyour creamy csa veggie soup sounds absolutely perfect for fall, Jenn! i love that you added a little spike to it - i love that seasoning so much! those dr cow cashew cheezes are the absolute yummiest. i picked some up when i visited my brother in NY back in may, and i'm wishing i had bought more than just 2. i may have to break down and order some online. mmmmmmmmmm!
Just look at the color of that soup! It's so smooth and creamy too. If I were to make that in my Magic Bullet I would end up with a big chunky-monkey bowl of lumpiness.
ReplyDeleteThis looks soooo soothing! What great comfort food.
ReplyDeleteThat soup looks so good--I may have to whack up a squash and try it myself! The whole pureed veg soup aesthetic is so fall-oriented and comforting.
ReplyDeleteThat looks great..oh I would love a vitamix..saving my pennies for that. I finally am able to get Dr. Cow in Boston!! A vegan pizza place opened in Alston and they sell it and other vegan goodies!!
ReplyDeleteThat soup looks amazing and Fifth Element is a FAB film.
ReplyDeletesoup! one of my favorite things about fall...no doubt!
ReplyDeleteThat soup looks so velvety smooth!
ReplyDeleteThis is one of the things I most look forward too at this time of year... when it is cold enough to be souping it up all the time.
