Healthy Cheap Recipes- Vegetable Soup
I’m not really a fan of most vegetable only soups, they tend to be wimpy and bland in flavor and in fulfillment. But this is a nice exception. You can play around with the vegetables if you like, but try to keep them somewhat similar. It’s easy to have a muddled flavor with too many vegetables. Pick things you know already go well together. This is a supremely healthy soup.
2 diced carrots

Potato Corn Chowder is nutritious and cheap. I would recommend making extra, because like many soups it really reheats well and is even better the next day. This is easily adapted- add cheese, bacon crumbles, more veggies, whatever you have on hand. I call it Potato and/or Corn Chowder, because if you don’t have corn, just call it potato soup and have it anyway!
