My family really enjoyed this soup and it was so easy to throw together. I did double it. I also added some sauteed onion and garlic, a can of chicken broth and some macaroni pasta. Great for a cold winter day.

It was great! I added diced tomatoes, onions, and potatoes. I make it a lot in the winter time. Very cheap and easy to make. It's definitely in my recipe book. Thanks for sharing!

Great base recipe. Usually I don't write a review if I change a recipe, but I loved the starting point this recipe gives and I did not eliminate any of the ingredients - simply added to it, so I wanted to give it a good review. I added some chopped onion, minced clove of garlic, diced red potatoes, and a can of diced tomatoes with no salt added. Also increased oregano & added basil. Lots of fresh ground black pepper, and only a dash of sea salt near the very end. DELICIOUS! Thank you for this recipe. I had never made vegetable soup before and this recipe took the fear out of it for me :-)

This was good. I added ground beef and a little extra frozen mixed vegetables but still feel it could use something more.

This was a great recipe/base recipe. I added seasoning; more oregano, italian seasoning, garlic and some cayenne pepper. You can add any ingredient you wish to this recipe. I added celery and a can of beans I had on hand. We had it for dinner that night and left-overs the next day....it was even better the next day.

I was very wary of a recipe that started with tomato juice. I hate tomato juice....this was excellent soup. I made a huge pot for my staff at work...added dried basil, lightly sauteed onion, and par boiled potato. Every one said that it was the best soup of the day! Easy, yummy, and cheap to make! Thanks!

I make this soup a ton and my family loves it. It is never the same soup twice - I customized this by sauteeing onions, garlic, sweet peppers and celery (always onions and garlic but whatever else is available at the time) in EVOO. I also use the Asian mixed veggies as I am not a fan of carrots and peas and add these to the pot with the sauteed onions before adding the juice. I have added sausage to the sauteed onions, delish and I have sauteed the onions in some of the tomato juice instead of evoo to make it fat free. A great healthy starting point.
