Simple 10 Veggie Spicy Curry Soup

Post by msdrina09 »

I have never made soup before and I am still a novice at cooking however, I made the best soup I have ever tasted in my life!!  Yes I made it from scratch in my tiny kitchen. I am so proud of me!  YIPPY  well I will try to recreate the recipe here because really I threw the flavors together as I went and at the last minute decided to add corn and curry and those two flavors is really what made the dish pop. You can take away the orzo if you want a straight veggie dish also if you do not have a croc pot you can prepare on the stove but would have to adjust for time, cooking until all the veggies are tender. 

Simple 10 Veggie Spicy Curry Soup

Ingredients:


1 Stalk of thinly sliced celery
2 Cups of baby carrots thinly sliced (can use reg carrots easier to cut)
1 Large green and 1 large red pepper sliced thin
2 Medium white onions sliced (or red)
1 Cup mushroom sliced thin
3 globe tomatoes sliced in small chunks
1 cup grated ginger
2 tsp minced garlic
2 cups frozen whole corn
4 stems of fresh thyme
2 cans Swanson reduced sodium chicken broth
3 tbs curry powder
2 tbs onion powder
2 tbs garlic powder
2 tbs cayenne powder
2 tbs paprika
2 tbs extra virgin olive oil (optional)
2 cups orzo pasta
Black pepper to taste


Combine all vegetables in a large Croc Pot and layer with spices **except CORN will add later leave in freezer for now.  Add chicken broth and cover cook on Low for a 6-8 hour soup or High for a 2-4 hour soup.  15 minutes before soup is finished add the frozen corn cover and continue to cook.  In a medium saucepan cook orzo pasta according to directions on package.  Add orzo to soup when serving. Do not serve the thyme stems remove before serving.  Store remaining orzo with the soup. Servings 4

Mary,

I like the idea of substituting the lentils for the orzo. I love them.

Mary,

I have never tried lentils, next time I will do the substitution and see how it works. As for the orzo in this recipe I made sure to use very little. 

Thanks for the idea!
