Preparation

1. Sauté the Base Ingredients

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

2. Add Vegetables

Add the diced carrots and celery to the pot. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften.

3. Combine with Broth

Pour in the vegetable broth and add the diced tomatoes. Stir well to combine all ingredients.

Seasoning and Simmering

4. Season the Soup

Add the dried thyme, dried basil, bay leaf, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Stir to ensure the seasonings are evenly distributed.

5. Simmer the Soup

Bring the soup to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Final Touches

6. Add Optional Ingredients

If using, stir in the cooked beans and chopped spinach or kale. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the greens are wilted and the beans are heated through.

7. Serve

Remove the bay leaf and ladle the soup into bowls. Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
