VEGETABLE BROWN RICE
Loaded with carrots, onions and peas, this rice makes a terrific side dish, but it can even stand on its own as a light main course. Raisins offer a slight sweetness, and pecans add a little crunch. --Denith Hull of Bethany, Oklahoma

Tips:
- Use a variety of vegetables. This will give your soup a more complex flavor and texture. Some good choices include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, broccoli, and spinach.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices and herbs. A few well-chosen spices can really elevate the flavor of your soup. Some good options include garlic, cumin, paprika, thyme, and rosemary.
- Use a good quality broth. The broth is the base of your soup, so it's important to use a good one. If you can, make your own broth using bones, vegetables, and herbs. Otherwise, look for a good quality store-bought broth.
- Don't overcook the vegetables. You want the vegetables to be tender, but not mushy. Overcooking them will make them lose their flavor and nutrients.
- Season the soup to taste. Once the soup is finished cooking, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may need to add more salt, pepper, or other spices.
Conclusion:
Brown rice vegetable soup is a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make meal. It's perfect for a quick lunch or dinner, and it's also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and satisfying soup that the whole family will enjoy.
