Duck and Vegetable Soup

3 big carrots

4 ribs of celery

12 Brussels sprouts

2 big spoons of duck fat
1t-1T Lowry's Garlic Salt
1t black+cayenne pepper

1 big green pepper
3 seedless red mini peppers

6 sm.-med. Yukon Gold potatoes
6 big cloves of garlic
1 med. yellow onion
3 bay leaves

1 14.5oz. can diced tomatoes
1/2c cooking Sherry
12oz. duck bone broth
24oz. fresh cold water
1/4-1/3c chicken Better Than Bullion
10oz. roasted duck meat

I melted a couple big spoons of the strange looking chartreuse rendered duck fat in a big heavy bottomed pot. (color is from the turmeric and oregano - although duck fat is also darker than chicken fat)

Sauté the  sliced carrots, celery and Brussels sprouts for about 5 minutes until they start to soften.

Add the second group of rough chopped vegetables, and about half the bone broth. Cover and simmer on low about 10 minutes.

Next add the final group of ingredients, cover and simmer another 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are done the way you like them. . .Lin
