Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables and Herbs

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes
  • 2 cups chopped kale or spinach
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • 1 teaspoon rosemary
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Liquids

  • 4 cups vegetable broth

Optional Protein

  • Cooked chicken or beans for added protein

Instructions

  1. Sauté Vegetables: Begin by heating the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, diced carrots, and chopped celery. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables soften and the onion becomes translucent.
  2. Add Mushrooms and Tomatoes: Stir in the sliced mushrooms and the can of diced tomatoes. Cook for another 4-5 minutes to allow the flavors to deepen and the mushrooms to release their moisture.
  3. Simmer Soup: Pour in the vegetable broth, then add the thyme and rosemary. Stir to combine, bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for 25-30 minutes so the flavors meld together beautifully.
  4. Add Greens and Season: In the last 5 minutes of cooking, add the chopped kale or spinach to the pot. Season the soup with salt and pepper according to your taste and stir well.
  5. Optional Protein Addition: If you prefer, add cooked chicken or beans at this stage for extra protein. Stir to combine and heat through. Serve the soup hot with crusty bread or your favorite garnish for a cozy meal.

Notes

  • For a vegan version, omit the cooked chicken and use beans or lentils for protein.
  • You can swap kale with spinach or other leafy greens based on preference.
  • Adjust herbs and seasoning to taste.
  • Leftover soup keeps well in the fridge for up to 3 days and freezes nicely.
  • Add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dash of hot sauce for an extra flavor boost before serving.
