Clean out the Fridge Veggie Soup + Blogging Puppy

Clean out the Fridge Veggie Soup- my veggies were about to go bad so I threw them all into this awesome fresh soup!

-Saute a couple cups of baby spinach and cabbage in water (I used Napa)
-Add 2 ears of fresh corn off the cob
-Add a 28 ounce can of pureed tomatoes (I used Dei Fratelli's with only 15 mg of sodium/serving)
-Add two chopped up roma tomatoes
-Cook for about 15 more minutes and add garlic powder, onion powder, hot pepper flakes, and I added some fat free Italian dressing
-You can also add some shredded Parmesan cheese when you are about to serve.

Any veggie can be used in this soup and it would be good.

This soup turned out so yummy!

How to Nutritionist-it-up:
-I do not add salt to my food. I figure that packaged foods have plenty of it and do not need any extra.

-I did not add any oil.  In the beginning, you can cook the veggies in water and add spices later for flavor.  Why added excess oil for no reason?

-A soup that is 90% veggies is great for you!

-I do not count calories because I think that it would drive me too crazy but I assume that this recipe is very low in calories

Try it!
I left my computer last night to get a snack and look how I found Ava. 
I think that she was blogging! Little scoundrel!
