During the war, food shortages were in full force so The Waste Not Want Not mentality became the norm. Recipes were stretched and nothing was wasted.. even the vegetables that were "on the turn" in the kitchen.
Dump It All In Soup...affectionally called Dump Soup.. is a recipe from my Nanas Kitchen that I still make. It is so easy...and you cant really call it a step by step recipe. You just start with a base of canned tomatoes, stock, onions and Worcestershire sauce... and just "dump in" any veggies that you have...no pre cooking or sauteing needed. Its great when you want to clean out your fridge. I ring the changes and sometimes throw in a bit of cooked chicken, pork or beef.
1 can of diced tomatoes
2 pints stock.. Beef, Chicken or Vegetable
A few splashes Worcestershire Sauce
Tbsp Minced Garlic
Large onion chopped
1 can of Kidney or Black Beans, drained and rinsed (optional)
