Ginger Vegetable Soup



I call this "Asian inspired everything goes with it soup". You name it the way you prefer! Take this as a a budget friendly travel to India and may be far east? through your kitchen.

Our family favorite lately, this soup is ready in minutes, warm and healthy!

Boil some water in a sauce pan or in a kettle. Get your soup pot on the stove on medium heat.  Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to your pot, 1/2 teaspoon turmeric, 1/2 teaspoon cumin or curry powder and give them a stir for about 15 seconds.  Mince 2-3 cloves of  garlic and 1 teaspoon of  fresh ginger, add them to the pot. Add 1 cup of diced carrots,  1 cup of mushrooms ( I had shitake and portabella).  Cover the ingredients with boiling water. Salt and pepper to taste. Bring the soup to boiling. Add 1/3 lbs pasta to your liking. Follow the cooking instructions on the pasta package. Turn the heat off, last but not least add some baby spinach leaves to your soup.

Get your biggest soup bowl:) and serve immediately. Beware delicious.
