But, truthfully--soup is so easy. I set ground beef out to thaw, but just couldn't decide what to make with it all day. Finally, around five, I decided to make soup, and started bread in the bread machine. I pulled some celery and carrots out of the crisper, but they were starting to liquefy--gross. My frozen vegetables were pretty much broccoli and Brussels sprouts. I don't want to throw either of those into a vegetable soup. Basically, I had a Vidalia onion, canned crushed tomatoes, some left-over collard greens and canned beans, ground beef, and beef bouillon, so I made minestrone soup. I threw in some oregano, garlic, salt, pepper, and hot sauce. So easy, so yummy--and, it looks like a lot of work:

I first looked at this last night around 10ish pm, and I was starving, and I have been unable to stop thinking about minestrone soup since. :) And I actually really like the sound of this simplified version; sometimes all those veggies get in the way.
