Recipe by Irmgard

An easy, hearty soup made from items found in the pantry. It can be made in the crock pot also by combining all of the ingredients, except for the oil, and cooking on low for 8 hours but I like it better made on top of the stove. Sauteing the onions and garlic gives the soup a whole different flavour which doesn't come across in the crock pot version.
