    8 spears of asparagus (bottom trimmed and cut into pieces)
    1 zucchini sliced
    1 cup cut green beans (I used frozen)
    4 cups of No-Chicken Broth (can use chicken broth, but then it wouldn't be vegetarian)
    2 cups water
    1 cup sliced shitake mushrooms
    1.5 cups kale leaves sliced into thin ribbons (with the hard stem removed)
    2 tsp. Chopped Basil (fresh) - I used the frozen cubes
    Salt/Pepper to taste

Salt and pepper to taste.
