Soup Preparation

  1. 1

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

    Add Remaining Ingredients

    Add the diced carrots, celery, and potatoes to the pot. Pour in the vegetable broth and canned tomatoes. Add the bay leaf, salt, and pepper.

  3. 3

    Simmer the Soup

    Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and let simmer for about 25-30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.

    Finish and Serve

    Remove the bay leaf. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, and fresh herbs as desired. Serve hot.
