In the mood for lots of vegetables and wanting something light for dinner, this soup was exactly what I was craving. I kept the vegetables fairly large and simmered the soup only until everything was tender.
Loaded with so many vegetables, this was almost closer to a stew than a soup. Whatever you call it, this was a great warm meal for a cool fall night.

Instructions
In a large pot, over medium heat, brown the ground beef and season generously with salt and pepper. When the meat is almost browned, add the onions, carrots, celery, corn, green beans and tomatoes. Stir to combine. Add the beef broth and the basil, oregano, garlic, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and then reduce the heat to a simmer. Simmer for about 20-30 minutes or until the vegetables are almost tender.
Taste the broth and adjust seasonings as desired. In the final five minutes of cooking, add the cabbage and stir to mix through the soup. Remove from the heat once the cabbage is tender. Enjoy!
FREEZER MEAL: Let the soup cool completely before
transferring to freezer safe containers. Soup can be reheated in the microwave
or it can be thawed first and then reheated on the stove-top.
