Kitchen Sink Soup

I love this soup and it uses up vegetables that are going to go bad soon.   I call it the Kitchen Sink Soup because you put everything in it, but the Kitchen Sink.   Feel free to put whatever you have in it, including beans, pasta and potatoes.

Kitchen Sink Soup:

2 Q Chicken Stock
1 Onion, diced
1/2 Corn, off the cob
3 Mushrooms, sliced
2 Carrots, sliced
1 C Broccoli, chopped
1 C Peas
1 Potato, cubed
1 Celery Stalk, sliced
1/2 C Pasta
Salt to taste

Directions:
1.  Bring the chicken stock to a boil.  Add potatoes and carrots.  Cook for 10 minutes.
2.  Add all other vegetables and pasta. 
3.  Bring back to a boil, and simmer for 20 minutes.  Salt to taste.

Serves 4-6

Tip:  The pasta will soak up a lot of liquid as the soup sits.  You never want to freeze a soup with pasta in it.  It will become mushy and break apart once thawed.
