Chop and dice veggies. Add all ingredients into a large stock pot.
Add water if necessary to bring liquids to almost twice the depth of
the veggies in the pot. Bring to a boil and then stir as needed.
cook on low for 2 hours or until all veggies are soft. You can add
parsley or any other herbs to suit your taste. NO SALT!
