Vegetable Soup and Biscuits



I made this simple vegetable soup the other day when I was sick.
It really helped! I'm sure any combination of vegetables
would work. And these easy biscuits were great for dipping!

Soup

7 cups vegetable stock
1 onion
1 carrot
1 large potato
1/2 zucchini
1/2 green pepper
1 garlic clove, minced
salt, pepper, rosemary

Bring 7 cups of stock to boil in large pot.
Chop onion, carrot, pepper, zucchini, and potato and add to stock.
Add garlic, pepper, salt and rosemary to taste.
Lower heat and cook till vegetables are tender.


Biscuits

2 1/4 cups white flour
1/4 whole wheat flour (or you could use all whole wheat flour, like I did)
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
3 tbs butter
3/4 & 2 tbs milk

Preheat oven 400 degrees.
Mix everything except butter and milk.
Then add melted butter and milk and mix well.
Place biscuit batter on cookie sheet about an inch thick
and three inches wide (I think I made about nine).
Place in oven and bake for about 18-20 minutes.
