Mussels have a wonderful savory briny ocean flavor and are inexpensive compared to oysters or clams. Choose mussels with a tightly closed shell and discard any that with chipped or broken shells. Rinse the mussels under cold running water while scrubbing with a vegetable brush. Leafy vegetables and mussels go in, cover and let it cook. When simmering, add the tomatoes, vegetables and the mussels.
