"This soup is a traditional vegetable soup with a little extra. I added homemade dumplings like my mom use to make for me. She made her soup with all the leftover vegetables in the refrigerator and then added dumplings. Good vegetarian soup without the meat."

Ingredients

• 6 cups vegetable broth
• 1 (16 ounce) package frozen mixed vegetables
• 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
