    Please Note: The good thing about this recipe you can omit or add any of the veggies that you like or don't like. (let your own personal taste decide) Also you can increase or decrease the amount of veggies ... this in not an exact measure recipe that you must follow ... you be the judge of what you want. If using the potatoes , I usually cook them seperate and add them to the hot soup just before seriving.
