How to make vegetable soup

Looking for a healthy and delicious meal to warm up on a chilly day?

 Look no further than vegetable soup! Packed with nutrients, fiber, and flavor, vegetable soup is an easy and satisfying meal that can be enjoyed any time of year.

To start, gather your favorite vegetables. Some great options include carrots, celery, onion, garlic, potatoes, sweet potatoes, green beans, and corn. You can also add in leafy greens like kale or spinach for an extra boost of nutrition. Chop your vegetables into bite-sized pieces, making sure they are all relatively the same size so they cook evenly.

Next, heat up a large pot or Dutch oven over medium high heat. Add a tablespoon of olive oil or butter, and once it's hot, add in your chopped vegetables. Sauté them for a few minutes until they start to soften and brown slightly, stirring occasionally.

Once your vegetables are nicely browned, add in your liquid. You can use water, vegetable broth, chicken broth, or a combination of any of these. Pour enough liquid in to cover the vegetables by about an inch or so. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 20-30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.

At this point, you can add in any additional seasonings or herbs you like. Salt and pepper are a must, but you can also add in things like thyme, oregano, or rosemary for extra flavor. If you like a little heat, try adding in some red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce.

Once your soup is cooked through and seasoned to your liking, it's time to serve it up! Ladle it into bowls and enjoy as is, or serve it with some crusty bread or crackers on the side for dipping. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to a week, or frozen for longer storage.

Vegetable soup is a great way to get in your daily dose of veggies while also enjoying a warm and comforting meal. It's easy to customize based on your preferences, so feel free to experiment with different vegetables and seasonings until you find your perfect combination. With just a few simple steps, you can have a delicious and nutritious meal on the table in no time!
