Whitney's Super Healthy Soup

I've been making this for years and years as my unstoppable cold-killer. YOU WILL BE HEALTHY AFTER THIS. Or at least full and happy. It is hot, spicy, tangy, and will kick you in your butt. Feel free to alter the level of spiciness or tanginess to your desire and/or ability.
