Garden Gangbang soup

das ingredients:

1.5 pounds of red pepper

1 pound of large portobello caps

2 pounds of tomatoes

.5 - 1 pound of white onions

1 bulb of garlic

2-4 pounds of kale and/or collard greens, coarsely chopped

3-4 cans of garbanzo beans, black beans, or whatever you prefer

1 pound of broccoli

1 pound of baby portobellos

Set oven to 450 degrees, and roast everything in bold for 45-55 minutes. Throw the mushrooms in halfway through, as they take less time

when finished, throw everything that's been roasted into a food processor, puree until as near-liquid as possible, then move this into a soup pot. add 2-3 quarts of water (could also use tomato/carrot juice), all of your beans, kale, collards, broccoli, a dash of cumin, and enough vegetable bullion to satisfy your palate.

In the meantime, throw the baby portobellos (whole) back into the oven to roast for about 15 minutes. When finished, deglaze pan with a little white wine, and throw everything into the soup pot.

By this time, everything should be hot and tender enough to eat.

this is highly adaptable, feel free to experiment

correction: after having this, I'd recommend not pureeing the peppers or mushrooms, just saute/roast them sliced and throw into the soup. puree twice as much tomato/onion/garlic in their place, and maybe use a little less water

I am going to try this recipe.
