  1. Excellent veggie stock I doubled this recipe to use in your 5 Lily soup - I hated to throw out the strained veggies so I refrigerated them and will combine them with tomato juice and blend well to make a kind of poor mans V8 Juice. This will be an excellent stock to keep in the freezer for quick soups Thanks Ed's girl for a keeper
     
  2. Nice broth. What makes this version unique for me (& tasty) is the addition of the lentils & soy sauce. For personal preference, I didn't add the potato and added a couple other fresh herbs (ie. tarragon & cilantro). I like Bergy's idea for saving the vegys, I may try that to make a tomato sauce next time. For now my composter/dirt gets all the yummy nutrients/fibre left over. Great recipe, thank for sharing.
