Preparation

  1. 1

    Chop the Vegetables

    Dice the onion, garlic, carrots, celery, and potatoes into small, uniform pieces to ensure even cooking.

    Measure out all the ingredients and have them ready before starting to cook.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Base

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion, garlic, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

    Add Potatoes and Broth

    Add the diced potatoes and vegetable broth to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer.

  3. 5

    Season the Soup

    Add thyme, bay leaf, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine and let it simmer for 20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.

  4. 6

    Incorporate Optional Ingredients

    If using, add canned diced tomatoes, cooked lentils, and spinach to the soup. Stir and let simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes until the spinach is wilted.

    Finish and Serve

    Remove the bay leaf, stir in chopped parsley, and adjust seasoning to taste. Serve hot.
