I don't remember where I got this recipe, but have made it a few times, it's easy to make and you can add in or take out whatever you choose to. You can add more of something that you really like, etc, etc. I made this batch with ingredients I had on hand, like zucchini, spinach, yellow squash, green bell pepper, onion, leftover spaghetti, and I added some garlic too. Didn't have the tomato juice but it was very good with out it. Made some garlic bread to go along with it. YUM!!!
