A friend gave me the idea to use V8 juice in soup recipes because it provides more flavor. This soup is great to make on a crisp autumn afternoon.

This was INCREDIBLE! I was actually done in 2 hours, but I let had it on warm all day. It was even better reheated after vacuum sealing it. I am Vegan, so I used all Cascadia Farms Organic frozen Vegetables and 2 Rapunzel Vegan Vegetable Bouillon Cubes in the 4 cups of water, replacing the chicken bouillon. Thanks so much for this GREAT recipe!
