Medicine Soup

A friend gave me this recipe called Medicine Soup: Chopped onion, drained can of corn, green beans with juice in can, 3 peeled chopped carrots, 3 or 4 chopped potatoes, 1/2 c. chopped cabbage, 1 or more cloves of garlic, 1 large can or 2 medium cans of blended tomatoes, add water as needed, add herbs as desired, parsley, sweet basil, Italian herbs, salt, eat many bowls of hot steaming soup to "cure" especially, colds and flu! Can add other veggies like, broccoli, peas, beets, celery, etc. Red beans will make it a minestrone type more hearty soup. Barley or veggie meat makes it heav- ier meal. Add pasta to vary it. Cook it like you would any type of Minestrone soup recipe.
