commodorified1 pkt Knorr Vegetable soup mix.
4 C water
1 large can beans, 6-bean mix or great northern or whatever sounds good.
2 large potatoes, cut into 1" pieces.
Dash of cumin, handful of tarragon, handful of onion flakes.
Combine, bring to a boil, let simmer until potatoes are soft. Could certainly add some veggies, frozen or not. Is improved by sitting on low, if you happen to do it early.

Allergen-Free Substitute for Mixes

I find that if I tell the butcher or fishmonger that I want to make stock tomorrow they'll keep a day's worth of chicken carcasses (less wings, legs and breast meat) or fish bones and heads and sell them to me for pennies. You can then make strong stock half a gallon at a time in a pressure cooker.
Of course this assumes a freezer and some pre-planning.
