The man wanted soup… well, he actually just commented that he loves a good thick soup, and I, not knowing what else in the local supermarket would thicken a soup, whipped out the cornstarch and a whole bunch of veggies and got cooking. This was easy and actually turned out quite well… Compliments to the chef, I suppose.
½ c. cornstarch combined with some water
3 c. chicken broth
2 T. Italian seasoning
1 t. salt
½ t. black pepper
vegetables:
7 small tomatoes, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
2 medium potatoes, diced (Now’s a good time to mention I don’t know the difference between chopped and diced…)
2 carrots, diced
1 ear of corn, de-kerneled
several long green bean strands, chopped
Combine all ingredients in the crock pot. I cooked it on low for 3 hours, covered, then on high for one, uncovered to allow it to thicken a bit more. The man was happy.

We ate this with some cornbread for a great little lunch.
