This is a nice, fast vegetable soup that my nine-year old invented. It's very easy as long as you have an immersion blender. You can leave out the sour cream to make it vegan.

3 small red onions, chopped
4 cups vegetable stock
2 teaspoons chopped garlic
2 teaspoons dried basil
3 small red potatoes, peeled and coursely chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper
1/2 cup low-fat sour cream, to allow for a dollop on each serving

1. Heat oil over medium heat.
2. Add onion and sautee for five to seven minutes.
3. Add garlic and sautee another minute.

7. Add the chard.
8. Cook for twenty minutes.
