This Vegetable Soup is healthy, it’s comforting and 1,000 times better than what you’ll get in a can! Full of flavor and so easy to make you can’t go wrong with a big warm bowl of vegetable soup. Not only is this soup delicious but and it’s so easy to make. It just takes some chopping and a bit of simmering until you’ve got a soup everyone will love!
This is a recipe you’ll definitely want to add to your dinner or lunch rotation. And it yields a pot full and makes great leftovers! This soup is jam packed with veggies and making it a healthy dinner choice. You can put whatever vegetables you like in this soup, from seasonal fresh veggies to frozen. Here’s a list of what I used: carrots, celery, tomatoes, potatoes, green beans, corn, peas, yellow onion and garlic. I had two bowls then came back before bed for a third because I liked it so much. I love that it uses half fresh veggies and half frozen so you still get all that freshness but have the ease of pre-cut frozen veggies too.
