Ingredients

  • 2 cups mixed vegetable blend frozen
  • 1 cup fresh celery thinly sliced
  • 1 cup onion petite diced
  • ½ cup bell pepper any color
  • 1 cup potato petite diced
  • 1 cup zucchini petite diced
  • 1 cup cabbage thinly chopped
  • 1½ tsp. Italian seasoning or less to taste
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 2 cubes vegetable bouillon or chicken bouillon
  • ¾ tsp. black pepper or less to taste
  • 8 cups water or vegetable stock
  • 2 tbsps. tomato paste
  • 1 tbsp. olive oil
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley chopped

Instructions

  • Prepare all the vegetables.
  • Bring a large pot over medium heat and add the oil. Sauté the onion, celery and bell pepper together until tender.
  • Add in the tomato paste and sauté for another minute. Then add in the mixed vegetables, salt, spices, bouillon and potatoes. Sauté together for another minute.
  • Add in the water then cover the pot to boil for 20 minutes. Remove the lid and add in the cabbage, parsley and zucchini .
  • Mix and allow the soup to cook for another 20 minutes. Remove the lid and let the soup cooks while lid off for the last 10 minutes on low heat.
  • Once the soup has cooked through, remove from heat. Allow to cool for a little before serving.

Notes

  • You may add more or less spices or different spices to the vegetable based on your preference.
  • Instead of Italian seasoning, you can try dried basil, dried oregano, dried thyme, dried rosemary, etc.
  • If you want to add some protein to this soup, you can add shredded chicken or beef.
  • Serve with some dry crackers or my No Knead Artisan Bread if you like.
  • Frozen vegetables are perfect for this recipe as you can get a variety of vegetables without having to buy them individually.
  • If you'd like to make this in the slow cooker, keep in mind that the longer it cooks, the softer the vegetables will become. Ingredients like the potatoes may breakdown too much.
