The Best Soup Ever

OK...I must say that I've outdone myself. I've made the best soup ever!!! (well, that I've ever made anyway). I don't really measure ingredients and just go by how I feel, so I'll let you in on what went into the pot and I'll let you decide (if you choose to try it) on how much you prefer in your own creation. Here goes:

I started with a pot of water (a large pot which I filled about 1/2 to 2/3 full with water). I added a splash of olive oil, some mustard and collard greens, garbanzo, black and white beans (already soaked and softened the night before), chopped onions, carrots and celery, spices of parsley, oregano, garlic powder, pepper, salt and a bit of cayenne pepper and let these all boil for a bit. Then, I added a small can of tomato paste and a few small white potatoes (chopped with skin and all) about 15 minutes before we were ready to eat so that they would not become mushy (though I don't think the small white potatoes even really can get mushy).

I'm not a soup lover by any means, but be it the fun, peaceful time I had cooking it or the love and good energy I poured into it, or maybe just the proper combination of ingredients and spices...I LOVE THIS SOUP!!! And so do all the meat lovers in my life :). Enjoy!
