Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Chop the Vegetables

    Wash and peel the carrots and potatoes. Chop all the vegetables (carrots, celery, potatoes, green beans, zucchini, and onion) into bite-sized pieces. Mince the garlic.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  2. 3

    Add Remaining Vegetables

    Add the chopped carrots, celery, potatoes, green beans, and zucchini to the pot. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 5 minutes.

  3. 4

    Pour in the Broth

    Pour the vegetable broth into the pot and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low.

  4. 5

    Season the Soup

    Add salt, black pepper, dried thyme, and bay leaf to the pot. Stir well and let the soup simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.

  5. 6

    Add Spinach

    Stir in the spinach and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the spinach is wilted.

  6. 7

    Serve

    Remove the bay leaf before serving. Taste the soup and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot.
