Homestyle Vegetable Soup

Submitted by HollyJane

"This is a very easy and satisfying soup. It contains a lot of vegetables, but is a cinch to throw together. This soup can easily be made vegetarian by using vegetable broth instead of beef broth, and just about any vegetables you like can be used."

Nice easy soup. I used canned tomatoes and no potatoes. Next time I will use less pepper - too peppery.
