- 1/2 head cabbage, coarsely chopped
- 3 carrots, diced
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1 stalk celery, diced
- 1 (15 ounce) can mixed vegetables, drained
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon celery salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground red pepper
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch (optional)
- 2 tablespoons water (optional)
- Place the water, chourico, potatoes, cabbage, carrots, onion, celery, canned vegetables, parsley, garlic powder, celery salt, and red pepper in a large pot.

If soup is too thin, stir in cornstarch dissolved in water to thicken.
