How to Make Vegetable Soup
- In a large soup pot, warm up the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced yellow onion and sauté for about 3–4 minutes, until the onion becomes soft and translucent.
- Stir in the minced garlic, sliced carrots, and chopped celery, cooking for another 5 minutes. Look for the vegetables to soften slightly—the aroma will be delightful!
- Toss in your cubed potatoes and green beans, cooking everything together for another 2–3 minutes. This will enhance the flavors and textures of your soup.
- Pour in the diced tomatoes with their juice, along with the vegetable broth, thyme, basil, bay leaf, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a lively boil, ensuring all those flavors mingle together.
- Lower the heat, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 20–25 minutes. You'll know it's ready when the vegetables are tender and the kitchen smells amazing!
- Stir in the corn and peas, allowing it to simmer for an additional 5–7 minutes. Don't forget to remove the bay leaf before serving.
- Adjust the seasoning if needed, and garnish each bowl with freshly chopped parsley for a vibrant finish.
