Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion chopped
- 2 large carrots chopped
- 1 cup chopped celery
- 28 oz canned diced tomatoes
- 60 oz vegetable broth low-sodium
- 3 medium potatoes diced
- 1 cup green beans chopped

- 2 tsp salt or to taste*
- 1 tsp ground black pepper
- 1 cup frozen sweet corn
- 1 cup frozen sweet peas
- 1/2 cup green onions chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley chopped
Instructions
- Prepare your soup adventure by warming up a sturdy pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Drizzle in 2 tablespoons of olive oil and toss in chopped onions and carrots. Saute this flavorful duo for 6-8 minutes until they turn a lovely golden hue.
- Next, introduce celery, canned tomatoes (with their juice), broth, potatoes, green beans, bay leaves, salt, and pepper to the pot. Bring it to a lively boil, then dial it down to a simmer, letting it cook for a delightful 25 minutes.
- Once the veggies reach that perfect tenderness, invite corn, sweet peas, green onion, and parsley to join the party. Season with salt to your liking and let it simmer for an additional 5-8 minutes. When it's all set, take it off the heat and serve this homemade vegetable soup while it's wonderfully warm.
Notes
- The amount of salt can differ based on the type you're using. For table salt, aim for around 2 teaspoons, but if it's a coarser salt, you might need 1 tablespoon. Remember, the key is to add salt according to your taste preferences. Keep it flavorful and just right for your homemade vegetable soup!
