Ingredients for Garden Vegetable Soup

You will need the following:

• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• 1 cup leek, white part only, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon dried basil
• 1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
• 1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
• 3 cups yellow squash, halved lengthwise then quartered
• 3 cups zucchini, halved lengthwise then quartered
• 2 cups spinach leaves, chopped
• 2 (15-ounce) cans cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
• 4 cups vegan chicken-style broth
• 2 cups water

How to Make Garden Vegetable Soup

STEP ONE: Preheat a large soup pot over medium heat then add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the leek basil, oregano, and thyme. Cook, stirring frequently, for 3 minutes, until softened. Add the garlic and continue cooking for an additional 30 seconds.

STEP TWO: Add the yellow squash, zucchini, cannellini beans, spinach, broth, and water. Bring just to a boil then reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 10 minutes, until the squash and zucchini are tender.

STEP THREE: Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice. Adjust seasoning to taste and serve hot.
