Delicious Homemade Vegetable Soup
Fall is finally here, yay! It's my favorite time of the year, and nothing goes better with cooler weather than a nice bowl of warm, yummy soup. I love this recipe because it comes from my Mother and all her food is delicious, but second of all, it is so healthy, I call it "medicine in a jar"! It's full of healthy foods and best of all, it's super easy to make! Here's the recipe straight from her kitchen, enjoy! - Janie
