Leftovers As Soup

Ingredients

    *leftover stock from chicken and roast beef
    *leftover vegetables; i.e. carrots, roast potatoes, onions; you could use leftover mashed potatoes if you wanted a creamier soup; use left-over veggies from other meals; peas, corn, green beans. Since they are already cooked, save them to add near the end so they just have to heat up.
    *raw carrots, about 4 cups, chopped up
    *raw potatoes, about 4 cups, chopped up
    *raw green beans, about 8 cups, cut into 2 inch segments
    *Leftover beef and chicken. My husband had saved the chicken carcass, certain I could pick more meat off. I cooked it down to let the bones enrich the stock (minerals from the bones) and I strained it afterward to separate the meat from all the little bones.
    *I had a lean roast that I diced into 1/2 cubes.
    *I ended up with 1/2 a cup of chicken pieces and 4 cups of cubed beef.
    I added the following spices:
    *1 Tbl. savory leaves
    *3 Tbl. parsley, dried
    *1 Tbl. onion flakes
    *1 tsp ground garlic
    *1 tsp dried Rosemary
    *a bay leaf left whole
    *sea salt to taste (Total of 1 Tbl.)
    *coarsely ground black pepper to taste (total of 2 tsp)
    2 TBL. cornstarch to one cup of soup stalk, for thickening
