Not only I like having soups but I also like trying my hands on it. All my family members love having different soup preparation. Today, I made a 100% healthy soup. It was without any artificial flavor or color. No cornstarch, no sauces. It’s completely natural and nutritious soup. I love serving it to my kids and my parents. It is quite simple to cook. Ingredients: Hand-full of cabbage, Peas, Carrot, two hand-full of Spinach, two thin slices of beet root, ¼ Bottle Gourd,1 small Potato, 5-6 medium Size tomato, boiled American corns, 1 lemon, salt and pepper.
