"A warm filling tasty soup that's easy to make. Healthy with a protein boost from canned beans (I use black eyed peas) and lots of fiber. Reheats wonderfully."

A great vegetable soup! I was in the mood for one this weekend. It was easy to make and tasted great. I added a few left-overs - some frozen corn and lima beans, and some fresh spinach. Used black beans and a 28 oz. can of tomatoes. Very good and very well-seasoned. Thanks! -
PS for a vegetarian soup make sure to use specified vegetarian worcestershire sauce - regular versions usually contain anchovies. -
I replaced the beans and cabbage with mushrooms! This soup is absolutely astounding. I have made it 3 times already! thanks for a great recipe! -
We made this soup today with a few slight changes. Instead of Worcestershire sauce, we uses Marmite. And instead of canned beans and tomatoes, used fresh one. It turned out great. Served it with crusted bread and it was a wholesome meal!

I'm a stay home mom of two little boys.
My husband is a meat and potatoes kinda guy, my little fellas will eat anything, and I'm a vegetarian.
One of my favorite things to do is sit and read a cookbook from cover to cover! My favorite cookbooks are ones with pictures of all the dishes.
