vegetable soup

So an evening of art shows left me with a bit of a friday hangover. Wanted something healthy and I had a bunch of vegetables around, so I made soup. I used v8 instead of vegetable broth, because it’s hard to find here in London, and I didn’t feel like making a broth since I needed such a relatively small amount. Also, I know some people are weird about okra, but it totally makes the soup better and it’s not all slimy.

1 lg can of chopped tomatoes, including liquid
2 lg cans water
1 small can vegetable broth or v8
3-4 potatoes
3 carrots
corn
okra, cut
fresh green peas
celery sticks
those little french green beans

Bring tomatoes, stock, and water and 2 celery sticks(uncut) to boil.

Add potatoes and carrots.

Add some celery salt, onion powder, salt and pepper to taste.

Boil 5 more min.
Turn down to a low simmer.

Cook for about 30 mins

Add corn, peas, and green beans.

Cook for 30 min. more.

Add okra.

Cook for 30 min more.

Should be done by now.
