Much cooler temperatures, so soup is on the menu.
onion , garlic , salt, pepper, sauteed
Diced red (and green) peppers, these were from the garden, the red pepper not as sweet as expected, only several days from being picked. The green pepper tasted mild, picked right before dicing.
Giving time for the garden to produce more tomatoes, used 1/2 large can of peeled tomato , squeezed, added water for four cups total liquid.
Season with a combo of dried pepper flakes, ancho,dried red pepper, and smoked red pepper.
Adjusted seasoning, salt pepper and a bit of sugar. I held back on adding other herbs and spices.
Add 1/2 cup veggie soup mix, 1/4 wasn’t enough, probably can add more later or pasta, potato. Simmer at this point for 1/2 hour or so.
Soup mix is Bob’s Red Mill, if you make this soup mix alone , that is with just water, it’s very bland.
Done, with just the right amount of spice.
