This recipe was from a "diet" that I got from our local hospital. It was recommended for patients who were to undergo major surgery, to clean out their system. It makes a lot of soup. It's a very good "Base" for anything you might want to add. Try Chorizo sausage, shrimp or other spices. You can also freeze potions of it and use as needed.

    Recipe can be halved. This is a very forgiving soup. You can add more or less of the fresh veggies you like. It doesn't need much additional seasoning, because the dry soup mix and the spicy tomatoes add lots of flavor.
