Garden Vegetable Soup with Popped Wild Rice
  1. Heat 3 tsp. (15 mL) olive oil in large pot over medium heat and cook onion 2 minutes. Add butternut squash, carrots and potato and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes.

  2. Add garlic and crushed red pepper; season with black pepper to taste. Add water and Knorr® Concentrated Vegetable Bouillon and bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender, about 25 minutes.
