  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Chop all the vegetables into small, uniform pieces to ensure even cooking.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Base

    In a large pot, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes, until softened.

    Add the chopped tomatoes and enough vegetable broth to cover the vegetables (about 4 cups). Bring to a boil.

  5. 5

    Simmer

    Reduce heat to low and let the soup simmer for 20-25 minutes, until all the vegetables are tender.

  6. 6
