If you read my blog, you know I am a huge lover of soups - all kinds. With winter coming and colder temperatures in our neck of the woods this was perfect - lunch or dinner. Although, I could eat soup any day! Here we used homemade Turkey bone broth - highly recommend homemade chicken, beef, or turkey bone broth if you have it, or if not a good quality store bought brand can work in a pinch.
A word about Pasatta. It is more readily available at grocery stores now compared to some years ago. It is peeled, de-seeded and strained uncooked tomatoes - heaven in a jar and so versatile. Really adds a nice tomato punch of flavour in any dish. (plus, it freezes nicely if you do not use a whole jar)
This was a tasty, healthy, soup loaded in nutrients, and vitamins, with packed goodness in a bowl.
4 cups Turkey bone broth
2 cups tomato Pasatta
2 leeks, sliced, rinsed and chopped
2 large cremini mushrooms, roughly chopped
1/2 cup chopped: turnip, rutabaga, carrots, celery, frozen green beans
2/3 cup chopped frozen spinach
1 cup shredded cabbage
1 tsp. dried rubbed Greek oregano
1 tsp. dried rubbed basil
1 tsp. organic tumeric
salt and pepper to taste
Add all the ingredients to a good sized pot. Bring to a boil, and reduce to a simmer, cooking 20-30 minutes until the vegetables are tender. Serve with your favourite gluten free bread or bun.
