Spicy Vegetable Soup image

A soup that hits the spot no matter what time of year. You can add as many types of vegetable as you like. Cooking the raw vegetables with the oil and spices before you add any type of broth intensifies the flavor of the soup. Store bought broth works fine. Need to consider salt content when using store bought broth.
