6 carrots
6 green onions
1 (16-oz.) can whole or crushed tomatoes
1 large head cabbage
2 8-oz. cans green beans
2 green peppers
1 bunch celery
2 chicken or beef bouillon cubes or packages
Optional: salt, pepper, parsley, salsa

Cut vegetables into small pieces. Place with bouillon cubes or powder in a large pot filled quarter of the way with water. Vegetables give off liquid as they cook, but you may need to add more water. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook for 10 minutes. Reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are tender.

Eat soup as desired as a "free food."

Happy Cooking!
