Whichever Vegetable Soup

1 large onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, chopped

4 ribs celery, chopped

2 tablespoons olive oil

60 ounces chicken stock

1 can diced tomatoes

2 tablespoons italian seasoning

salt

pepper

whichever vegetables are in the fridge or freezer

suggestions (and the way I prepared it)

1 small head cauliflower

1 cup baby carrots

2 small zucchini

1 parsnip (whole & remove when cooking is finished)

In a large pot saute onion, garlic & celery in olive oil until onion is translucent, approximately 5 minutes. Add stock, canned tomatoes & spices and vegetables. Bring to a boil then simmer until vegetables are soft. Approximately 30 minutes more.

Tip: Add vegetables in the order of how long they take to cook, for example, cauliflower takes considerably longer than zucchini to cook.

Serves 8-10
