I made a yummy soup last night! I was using stuff up that was in my pantry and fridge so it is an unusual mix, but it was totally delicious.
First, we had a roasted chicken from a store the night before, so I took off the rest of the chicken meat and set it aside and boiled the bones along with a ziploc of veggie trimmings I had in my freezer and a few fresh veggies to make stock. I only boiled it for about 3 hours, but that was the amount of time I had.

Then for the soup I used:
1 1/2 cups chicken stock
1 can light coconut milk
1 small jar of roasted red peppers - drained and blended with the stock in vitamix
fresh corn sliced off of one corn cob
1/2 fresh yellow squash - diced
1 garden fresh tomato - diced
chicken (from the roasted chicken) - diced
1/8 cup quinoa - rinsed first and a little amaranth too tossed in
salt
pepper
fresh garlic - pressed - small clove

First I blended the roasted red peppers with some of the stock in the vitamix
Then I cooked all of it for about 15 or 20 minutes and added the fresh lime juice near the end.

It was terrific and there were no leftovers - dh, oldest dd and I ate all of it.

It would be good with cilantro but we did not have any.
