Serves: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 2 carrots, diced
- 1 zucchini, diced
- 1 potato, diced
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 teaspoon thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all the ingredients: 2 diced carrots, 1 diced zucchini, 1 diced potato, 1 chopped onion, 2 minced garlic cloves, 4 cups of vegetable broth, 1 teaspoon of thyme, and salt and pepper to taste.
- In a large pot, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until it becomes translucent.
- Add the minced garlic to the pot and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
- Next, add the diced carrots, zucchini, and potato to the pot. Stir well to combine the vegetables with the onion and garlic mixture.
- Pour in the 4 cups of vegetable broth, ensuring that all the vegetables are submerged. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.
- Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and add the teaspoon of thyme. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Cover the pot and let the soup simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- After 20 minutes, check the doneness of the vegetables. If they are tender, remove the pot from heat.
- For a smoother texture, you can use an immersion blender to blend the soup to your desired consistency, or leave it chunky for a heartier feel.
- Adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed, and serve hot. Enjoy your delicious Sharon's Variation of Talyas Veggie Soup!
Tips
- Choose fresh vegetables for the best flavor and nutrition. The fresher your produce, the more vibrant your soup will taste.
- Don't rush the sautéing process - letting onions and garlic develop a light golden color enhances the overall depth of flavor.
- For a richer taste, consider using homemade vegetable broth instead of store-bought.
- If you prefer a creamier texture, you can add a splash of non-dairy milk or blend a portion of the soup for a smoother consistency.
- This soup freezes beautifully! Make a larger batch and store in portion-sized containers for quick future meals.
- Experiment with additional herbs like rosemary or parsley to customize the flavor profile to your liking.
- For added protein, consider stirring in some cooked white beans or chickpeas before serving.
