Vegetable soup is healthy and ready in less than 30 minutes! Using organic frozen vegetables in this easy vegetable soup recipe means less dishes and more time!
A family favorite healthy vegetable soup recipe full of green beans, tomatoes, corn, peas, carrots, celery and onion!
This quick and easy vegetable soup is brought to you courtesy of little C, who adores cooking with me! It is one of the simplest soups to put together with most of the vegetables already chopped and prepared. That means kids can make it and there are minimal dishes! That is a WIN-WIN for everyone leaving you with more time to enjoy this chunky bowl full of robust flavors!
When my little guy opened the fridge the other week he saw vegetable broth and requested soup for dinner. I had a bag of frozen vegetable mix with green beans, corn, carrots and peas and a box of diced tomatoes. He said “let’s make a healthy veg soup!”. He is not a big meat eater and prefers vegetarian foods so “veg soup” is a fitting request with him?.
He pulled up his chair to the stove, got his apron on and poured each of the ingredients into the pot. Then I turned on the heat?. From now-on very time it is my four-year old’s night to make dinner, can you guess what we will be having?
The soup can easily be transformed into a minestrone soup quickly by adding cooked noodles and beans into the recipe right before serving. I change it up sometimes for my kids this way. This soup is also even more delicious served the next day!
