I Am a Soup-Improvising Goddess

I have created a most excellent, fast, vegetarian soup, the recipe for which I will share, because you all seem trustworthy.

Start with this base, canned, or your own, to make about 4 cups of liquid. Toss in whatever random veggies you have in the fridge (I used onions, some garlic, carrots, celery, potatoes, corn, and peas, but you can use squash or greens or any sort, as well; the less starchy the better and more vitamin-packed). Add a teaspoon or so each of thyme, basil, and dill, some salt, and pepper. Simmer for about 20 minutes, until all the veggies are soft. Deelish.

Also, for the spices in general (and vanilla in particular), I can't recommend this place enough.
