Everyday Vegetable Soup
This basic vegetable soup can be made with any combination of fresh or frozen vegetables, so the soup will taste a little different each time. The recipe can easily be doubled or even tripled to feed all the vegetable soup fans at your table.

COOK’S NOTES
Freeze soup in small containers, then pull out only what you need; there’s no need to thaw the soup before reheating.
