Clean Out the Fridge Soup

 

We’ve all been there.  A refrigerator full of leftovers that need to be used calls for a pot of soup!  I experimented with this soup by not adding any salt since I was using canned veggies.  Mix and match your favorite leftover vegetables.  You could also add a can of beef broth to make it heartier.  But, I was pleased with the flavor and it was the perfect meal for a Winter night.
