I want to share with you a healthy vegetarian soup from Get Anxiety Help which is great for lunch or dinner on the weekend.  This soup converted easily to the crock pot.  It is so good for you and tastes just great.  Want a delicious and healthy vegetarian soup, then this is it.

carrotparsnipsoupCarrot and parsnip soup Crock Pot style

1 teaspoon oil
1 large onion, finely chopped
1 large parsnip, coarsely chopped
3 large carrots, coarsely chopped
4- 6 cups of vegetable stock
2 stalks celery (include the leaves), chopped
pinch of thyme
pinch salt and black pepper to taste
Parsley to garnish (optional but recommended)
Method:
Heat a big heavy based pot , add oil and heat. Add onion and cook until transparent then add the carrot, parsnip, celery and stock and thyme.  Transfer to the crock pot and cook on low for 4 - 6 hours.  Add salt and black pepper to taste.  Blend half of the soup and add back to the pot to give a thicker consistency.
Serve steaming hot with crusty bread a generous garnish of finely chopped parsley.
Serves 4 people

I love soups, and regular recipes convert with a minimum of change.  You can also skip the first part of browning the onion and vegetables and add them straight to the crock pot (slow cooker) if you want to cut out the fat altogether.

If you want some more recipes I have a free soup recipe ebook that I am giving away, so see the top part of the page to get your copy.

  1. That soup is perfect for my grandmother. She always cooks normal meals for the family and never complains that she is a vegetarian and so im sure she would like someone to make her a nice vegetarian dinner. :)

  2. Wow,this is what I’m looking for,,Recipes involving a low-carbohydrate diet use low-carb alternatives as essential ingredients, tasting similar to the high-carb foods you are not allowed to eat.
