I came up with this because I had different little bits of left overs on hand and not really enough to make any one thing. My husband had made corned beef and cabbage the night before so I decided soup was on the menu. The flavor was wow! My husband loved it and I barely added salt or pepper. That may very depending on the stock you chose to use.
