Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Sauté the Base Ingredients

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

  2. 2

    Add the Vegetables

    Add the diced carrots and celery to the pot. Continue to sauté for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Add Broth and Seasonings

    Pour in the vegetable broth and add the bay leaves, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil.

  2. 4

    Simmer the Soup

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the soup simmer for 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

  3. 5

    Incorporate Remaining Vegetables

    Stir in the diced zucchini, fresh spinach, and diced tomatoes. Allow the soup to simmer for an additional 10-15 minutes until all vegetables are tender.

Finishing

  1. 6

    Add Final Touches

    Remove the pot from heat. Stir in the lemon juice and chopped parsley. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper to taste.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Ladle the soup into bowls and enjoy hot. Optionally, serve with crusty bread.
