Can you give me a soup recipe with these ingredients (details)
I have potatoes that need to be used up. I was thinking that I would make soup. This is what I have, and would like to use up, but not all of the ingredients have to be included, and I could probably pick up an item or two to be added, if necessary.
potatoes (Must be in the recipe.)
cabbage (I prefer for this to be included, as well.)
broccoli
carrots
green beans
kielbasa
beef stock
chicken stock
onion
garlic
plenty of seasonings
Something tells me that just throwing all of this crap into a pot won’t make the most delicious soup, but I can think of a few combinations that would go well together, in the right broth.

All of that would make a delicious thick ratatouille you can stretch by spooning it over rice, lentils or pasta.
I don’t think I’ve ever eaten ratatouille, but I do have pasta.. and rice… and well, canned kidney beans.
I forgot about those ingredients, though. I always make veggie soups, and I rarely include rice or noodles, so I hadn’t even thought of that. :)
I would leave out the broccoli and green beans. Chop the onions and carrots finely, and sweat them in olive oil for a few minutes. When the onions are starting to get soft and translucent, add minced or sliced garlic. Add the stock of your choice, potatoes, and cabbage (I never cook with meat, but this would probably be a good time to add the kielbasa if you want it in there). I would season with bay, coriander, and cumin.
I’d throw all of that (minus cabbage) in and add a few splops of Tabasco (not enough to hot it up, but enough to pop the flavors). That’s kind of my default “everything” soup.
Don’t discount a big pot of veggie soup. I would leave out too much garlic as it will kill the taste of the vegetables. Also, use the chicken stock, instead of the beef stock.
The key to a great pot of veggie soup is time. Let all the ingredients slowly cook, until the potatoes are soft. Salt or seasonings to taste.
Should make enough for two or three days or to freeze for later.
This soup is fantastic!!
Substitute your kielbasa for the sausage, add some chopped spuds, shredded cabbage intead of the squash and spinach.
Use your beef stock, saute your kielbasa with some chopped onion. I added some celery flakes and a couple shakes of basil, and extrra garlic.

My first instinct would be to make a basic, creamy potato soup, you wouldn’t need half those ingredients though and you need some cream or at least full-cream milk.
I just made one of my favorite soups the other day using many of your ingredients.
Veggie stock with smoked Turkey Kielbasa sausage, chopped cabbage, onions, yellow crookneck squash, orange & yellow bell peppers, baby potatoes and cracked red pepper, black pepper, garlic, parsley and other herbs.
I serve it with either cornbread muffins, or… Laughing Cow soft 50% lowfat, french onion flavored swiss cheese on water crackers.
OMG! To die for!
You just need to add a stone at the end, instead of at the beginning. The village can feast!
I like to take half the soup and throw it in the blender. That way you get a “creamy” soup without all the added calories of “cream.”
My Mom’s Minestrone
⅓ c canola oil
¼ c butter
1 large onion, diced
2 large carrots, diced
2 medium potatoes, diced
2 stalks celery, diced
½ c green beans, cut 1 inch
6 c water
½ small cabbage, shredded
16 oz can tomatoes
5 oz fresh spinach
2 medium zucchini, diced
½ tsp salt
6 beef bouillon cubes
16 oz canned white kidney or cannelloni beans
16 oz canned red kidney beans
Heat oil and butter over medium heat in a large pot. Add onion, carrots, potatoes, celery and green beans, cook until lightly browned stirring occasionally, about 20 min.
Add water, cabbage, and tomatoes with their liquid, spinach, zucchini, bouillon and salt. Bring to a boil over high heat; stir to break up the tomatoes.
Reduce the heat to low, cover, simmer 40 minutes or until the vegetables are tender. Stir occasionally. Do not over cook.
Stir in canned beans, cook 15 minutes more or until the soup is slightly thickened.

Boom. It’s an old recipe, hence the bouillon. There’s no reason you couldn’t use your stock rather than water and bouillon. Don’t forget to add salt if you do. I bet you could throw the broccoli and kielbasa in as well.
Another idea, you can make veggie quesadillas.
I love these!
Grill or lightly sautee until semi soft ,zucchini, onions, tomatoes, mushrooms, spinache, or any veggie, minus the cabbage and potatoes. Layer onto tortillas of choice with cheese of choice I like pepper jack or a sharp white cheddar, and grill until cheese is melted.
These are delicious!
Serve with salsa and sour creme or guacamole if you’re not too fat averse in the moment. lol
