Hot Dog Soup

"My mother, Marea Mooney, made this soup for her six children. It is a warm and filling mixture of potatoes, green beans and frankfurters that's easy to make and perfect for a cold winter day. Adjust ingredients to taste. We all love it; hope you do, too! Serve with salad and warm rolls."
