Portuguese-Inspired Vegetarian Sausage Soup

[Guest guest]

This is such a yummy soup. I based it on a recipe I

found that was chocked full of nasty, greasy meat

sausage. I use Frieda's brand Soyrizo. The only

place I have been able to find it is at the Super

Wal-Mart here. You can add 1 teaspoon of aniseed to

make this soup more authenic.

 

Portuguese-Inspired Vegetarian Sausage Soup

 

2 teaspoons olive oil

1 medium onion, chopped

3 stalks celery, sliced

3 cloves garlic, minced

6 cups vegetable broth

3 medium potatoes, cut into 1/2 inch cubes

1 14.5 oz. can diced tomatoes (including juices)

1 15 oz. can kidney beans, drained

1 package Soyrizo (discard plastic casing)

3/4 cup black olives, sliced

1 small zucchini, sliced

 

In a large soup pot, saute the onions and celery in

the olive oil over medium heat. When they become

tender, add the garlic and saute 1 minute more. Add

potatoes, vegetable broth, diced tomatoes, and kidney

beans and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and cook for

10 minutes. Then add the Soyrizo, black olives, and

zucchini. Cook 10 more minutes until potatoes and

zucchini are tender.
