Nothing like a big pot of vegetables in broth when it's cold and rainy outside. It's also one of the easiest dishes to make if your happen to be feeling under the weather. Just pop a few veggies, tempeh, herbs and broth in a pot, heat and serve. Dinner ready in 30 minutes, start to finish. Serve with crusty bread and ground mustard. Yum.
