Recipe Expert Tips
Note: The nutritional calculations are incorrect.
Mix the soup seasoning blend for each jar separately. The soup seasoning blend is made with the perfect amount of herbs and seasoning to flavor one jar of soup.
For a heartier soup: add fresh spinach or kale leaves, add diced boneless skinless chicken to the soup pot, add ¼ cup of wide egg noodles or instant rice to the pot after the vegetables have rehydrated. you may need to add more broth because the dried vegetables and pasta or rice will absorb the broth as they cook.
