Introduction
A classic, comforting Italian vegetable soup packed with fresh vegetables, beans, and pasta simmered in a rich tomato broth. It is highly customizable, nutritious, and perfect for cozy fall and winter days.
Step 1
Chop one onion. Heat olive oil in a large pot, add the chopped onion, and sauté over medium heat for 4-5 minutes until soft and translucent.
Step 2
Dice three carrots and chop two celery stalks. Add three minced garlic cloves, the diced carrots, and chopped celery to the pot with the onion. Cook for 6-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 3
Dice two potatoes. Add the diced potatoes, one can of chopped tomatoes, and 6-8 cups of vegetable stock or water to the pot.
Step 4
Season the soup with salt to taste, one teaspoon of thyme, and black pepper to taste. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot with a lid, and simmer for about 15 minutes until the potatoes are tender.
Step 5
Add one can of drained beans and 2/3 cup of pasta to the pot. Stir well, cover, and cook for about 10 minutes until the pasta is cooked through.

Important Notes
You can easily customize this soup by adding other vegetables you like or have in your fridge, such as zucchini, spinach, green beans, or peas.
Using vegetable stock instead of plain water will yield a richer and more deeply flavored broth.
If you plan to have leftovers, you can cook the pasta separately and add it to individual bowls when serving to prevent the pasta from absorbing all the soup broth and turning mushy over time.
