Toni's Own Soup

Have you ever looked in your freezer and seen so many frozen bags of vegetables and all of a sudden you felt like grabbing a few and decided to make your own kind of "Vegetable Bean Soup"? Well I did that yesterday and here are my results. In the following order:

• Two tablespoons oil in a 4 quart saute pan
• one cut up onion until translucent
• 2 cloves garlic cooking just 2 minutes.
• 1 bag each of broccoli, cauliflower, brown rice, kale. Each partly microwaved to soften
• 1 box frozen peas as is
• 1 can of cannellini beans with liquid
• 1 can tomato sauce
• 4-5 cups water, preferred over store broth too much salt content
• black pepper, oregano, parsley and basil.

Brought it all to a boil then lowered the heat to simmer for a couple of hours. Here's the results. First photo simmering, second photo finished product.

This may not be to your liking then you can always add your own veggies. I decided not to use carrots as I don't like them cooked, didn't use potatoes or pasta as it would have been too much. I do know this is the best way to rid your freezer of vegetables that were in there too long and I now have 6 cooked ahead soups in my freezer. Actually there was 7 but I ate it for last night's dinner. Delicious if I say so myself.
