Preparation

  1. 1

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, diced carrots, and diced celery. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.

    Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.

    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 boil.

    Once boiling, add the diced zucchini, potatoes, chopped green beans, and chickpeas. Reduce the heat to low and cover the pot.

  3. 5

    Simmer

    Let the soup simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.

Finishing Touches
