Yummy Stinky Vegan Garlic Soup
invented by Mel!ssa

1 qt. veggie broth, plus maybe a little more
2 largish potatoes, diced
1 c. kidney beans, canned or dried/soaked/frozen/boiled
1 c. corn, canned frozen or whatever
1 largish onion, chopped
1/4 c. olive oil
1 tsp. sage
1 tsp. thyme
3 bulbs of garlic, about 20-30 cloves I think
salt & pepper

In big soup pot, fry onion in olive oil. Add veggie broth, kidney beans, and
potatoes. Bring to boil for a couple of minutes, then simmer until
everything is cooked how you like it. Then add the corn.

In the meantime, roast the garlic (still in the cloves but with the papery
part removed) on a cookie sheet under your oven broiler until there are
black spots. Don't forget to poke holes in it or it will explode in your
oven! I know. Put in a paper bag to cool. Peel the tough covering off of the
nice soft creamy roasted garlic. There will be some black on the garlic,
that's ok. It's not burned, it's carmelized. Num.

Put the garlic, the sage and thyme, and about half of the cooked soup into
your food processor or blender. Blend until fairly smooth and well mixed.
Add the blended stuff back to the pot with the nonblended stuff, and add
more veggie broth or water until it's the consistency you want. Taste it,
and add salt if the broth didn't make it salty enough. Maybe some pepper
too.

Serve with yummy vegan bread. Mmmm.

That sounds like a yummy recipe...I love garlic...it's so good for you. Whenever we got colds or any kind of sickness, my dad would make us eat garlic...it has so many natural antibiotic qualities.
