I made this last night, and it was a BIG hit! Even my teenager loved it! It's written in a low-fat version, but you can make it with regular ingredients too.

I've got some frozen veg-all mixed veggies that has carrot, cauliflower and broccoli, and had no idea what to do with it. I'm going to try this recipe!

Frozen should work great... but I'd just let them thaw, instead of steaming first. Otherwise, you'll end up with mush! LOL!

The great thing about this recipe is that you can use just about any veggies...and everything else should be in your stockpile. And it's EASY!!!

I wonder if anything can be substituted for the mayo~I can't handle that, but otherwise does sound do-able.

Honestly, you could probably just add a little milk (not the full 1/3 cup, though) instead. I think the mayo is mostly just to thin the soup. A long time ago, I made a casserole kind of like this (without the spices), and it called for sour cream. Those are just 2 suggestions.
