My oldest son is vegetarian; the soup is my own makings. I started making this soup for his trips back home; he lives in London. I make this the day before he comes in, after our trip home from airport. We unwind eating this soup, munching on blue tortilla chips, humus and play catch up. My 8 year old grandchild was raised eating this soup; she asks for it often.

- dash olive oil for sautéing
- 1 onion chopped

- crushed red pepper flakes (very little)

Directions
Step 1
Sauté the onion, bell pepper and garlic in olive oil. Add the seasonings while sautéing, leaving the cumin until last. Sauté for about 5 to 6 minutes watching not to burn veggies.
