Nutritionist Phyllis Freedman of the VNA of Rhode Island offers this hearty Indian soup: "This recipe is one of my favorites and it's loaded with vitamins. The longer it cooks, the better it tastes."

  • 3 tbsp margarine
  • 1 tsp curry powder
  • 2 onions, chopped
  • 3 ounces tomato paste
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp parsley
  • 1 carrot, chopped
  • 5 cups water
  • 2 stalks celery, chopped
  • 1 lb can garbanzo beans, undrained
  • 1 green pepper, chopped
  • Salt or vegetable seasoning powder
  • 1 small turnip, grated to taste
  • 1 large Pippin apple, chopped

In a large pot, saut onions and garlic in margarine. Add all ingredients except beans; cook for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Pure beans in a blender until smooth and add to soup; dilute with water if it's too thick. Continuing simmering, the longer the better. Makes two quarts.
