Canned Soup

Ingredients

• 1 (28 ounce) can stewed tomatoes
• 1 (16 ounce) can vegetarian refried beans
• 1 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained and rinsed
• 1 (15 ounce) can green beans
• 1 (14.5 ounce) can vegetable broth
• 1 tablespoon dried oregano
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1 tablespoon dried parsley
• 2 tablespoons dried minced onion

Directions

Puree stewed tomatoes in an electric blender or mixer. Place tomatoes, refried beans, corn, green beans, and vegetable broth in a large pot. Cook over a medium heat. Refried beans and tomatoes will cook down to create a base for the soup. Stir occasionally to prevent stickiness.

Add water as needed to prevent over-thickening. Add oregano, garlic powder, salt and pepper, basil, parsley, and minced onion. Cover and cook until mixture is heated through. Add the onions, and continue cooking until the soup is just boiling.
