IDK if it counts as “soup” but make a cup of oatmeal (1 cup oats 2 cups water) in an instant pot, then stir in a packet of TJ “Indian Fare” Jaipur Vegetables. Yum, you get a big bowl of tasty spicy glop that is at edible temperature right away, because you stirred in 10 oz of room temperature stuff into around 20 oz of near boiling stuff and it averages out.
I think technically that counts as gruel. Don’t get me wrong, though, I’m all in favor of gruel, and the kind of thing your doing, but it’s a fun word to use.
I sometimes do something like this too, cooking oatmeal with extra water, some Better then Bouillon, some chopped onion, carrot or whatever vegetables I have handy. Maybe hot sauce or whatever spices I’m feeling. I haven’t done this in a while, thanks for reminding me, we’re getting into good weather for this kind of thing!
It sounds weird but like 4:1:1 oats, wheat gluten, and wheat bran is a really easy way to double the fiber and protein. That’s more for a raisin cinnamon green apple kind of thing no idea how it would go with weird vegetables
