All The Veggies Vegetable Soup Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 large onion, diced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 medium carrots, diced
- 3 stalks celery, diced
- 2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced (I use Russet)
- 2 tsp Italian seasoning
- 4 cups vegetable broth + 1 cup water (I like Better Than Bouillon)
- 2 15oz cans diced tomatoes
- 1 cup corn kernels (I used frozen)
- 1 15oz can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 bay leaf
- ¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice, or to taste
Instructions
- In a large Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium-low heat. When heated through, add onion and 1 tsp kosher salt; stir often and cook for 5 minutes. Cook the potatoes, celery, carrots, and garlic for an additional five minutes while stirring often. Cook for a further minute after adding the Italian seasoning.
- Add the tomatoes, beans, corn, bay leaf, broth, water, and a few pinches of black pepper. After bringing to a boil, lower the heat to a simmer and cook, covered, for about 35 minutes, or until the veggies are soft.
- Take off the heat and mix in the lemon juice and parsley. Take off the bay leaf and add salt and pepper to taste (don’t be shy, I added a lot!). Accompany it with warm, crusty bread.
