Vegetable Soup

Please include a recipe for vegetable soup! --Linda
Hi Linda, I’ve got a  great vegetable soup for you: my Hearty Minestrone is chockful of vegetables like cabbage, carrots, and tomatoes, along with ground beef. If you’d like a meatless soup, you can certainly omit the beef and add some more kidney beans. Enjoy!

    Oh Gramma, please tell me you have a recipe for cabbage rolls. I just LOVE all your recipes and will be heartbroken if you don't! --Pam

    Not really a cooking question, but a serving one. We are having 30 people for Thanksgiving dinner. My son wants me to serve our yummy squash soup. I don't have 30 soup bowls and am trying to figure out how to serve soup to that many people. Any suggestions? Thanks. --Cathy

    Hi Gramma Betty - My ginger cookies tend to get harder overnight, and I'm still experimenting to try to get a softer cookie. What do you think I could do to give more softness? But what I was originally going to ask was if you had a good recipe for either ginger cookies, or gingersnap cookies? Thanks for your help! I love your recipes! --Your Adopted Granddaughter JoAnn :)

    I would really appreciate some really simple meat dishes, where most of the ingredients are available on the kitchen shelf. Thank you. -Lynda

    I have been trying to find a list/table of what and how long you can freeze leftovers such as meatloaf, lasagna, enchiladas in the freezer. I live alone and I keep throw away leftovers. I enjoy leftovers just find, however after the second time they are just too much. I would like to freeze some after I cook them. Can you provide me any guidelines?
