1/2

teaspoon pepper

1/2

teaspoon dried thyme leaves

2

dried bay leaves

4

cups vegetable juice

3

cups cubed potatoes (3 medium)

3

cups coarsely chopped cabbage

2

cups frozen small whole onions (from 16-oz bag)

2

cups cubed peeled rutabaga (1 1/2 medium)

This is an example of one of my previous recipes for a vegetable beef soup that I have prepared in the past. I strayed away from this recipe because it uses certain ingredients that don't necessarily appeal to my personal taste such as the chopped cabbage.
