Cheese Vegetable Soup II image

This is a cheese vegetable soup recipe that my sister's husband developed that we've had in our family for quite a while. It's really good and freezes wonderfully; one ice cube tray of soup emptied into a freezer bag and then thawed is enough soup for 2 big (or 4 small) bowls when served!

The soup was a little bland for my taste. I added some salt and pepper to taste and it was much better.

I'm not a big fan of cheese soup, but this soup is an exception. It's light and flavorful, and the vegetables add a nice crunch.
