Directions

Get out the big soup pot. Place some broth in it. Add the onions, carrots, celery and garlic (and gardein plant based ground be’f if using) and simmer about ten minutes. 

Meanwhile microwave the potatoes

After onions and carrots are getting tender, add the rest of the broth. tomatoes (diced), and the water. Add seasonings, and soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce. 

Add chopped cooked potatoes (both kinds), zucchini, spinach and frozen vegetables.

Cook until the veggies are tender --about 15 minutes..

Note: If using turnip and parsnips add about the same time as the carrots.
