Simmer the soup until the veggies are tender. Puree in blender or food processor until smooth. Add salt/pepper to taste. Sallys notes: Instead of stock of bouillon cubes, you can take out 1/2c soup after pureeing and dissolve a T of miso in it, then return it to the pot and mix. Almost all the combos are good with the addition of 1/2 an onion and a clove or two of garlic sauteed in sherry. Other possible additions (not combined of course) include: 1T tomato paste, 1/2c leftover beans or grains, a few dried mushrooms or dried tomatoes, a few tablespoons of sauerkraut, a T of capers or chopped pickle added before serving, toasted pumpkin/squash seeds or wheat germ sprinkled on top.
