Soup

Method

Soup Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Soup

    In a large pot, heat a splash of olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions, garlic, carrots, and celery. Sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 2

    Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Stir in the fresh parsley just before serving.

Salad Preparation

  1. 4

    Make the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber.

  2. 5

    In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Drizzle over the salad and toss well.

  3. 6

    Serve half of the salad alongside a cup of the prepared soup.
