Print Recipe

A wholesome and creamy vegetable soup perfect for chilly evenings, made in one pot for easy preparation and cleanup.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 carrots, chopped
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 1 potato, diced
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cups mixed vegetables (e.g., green beans, peas, corn)
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Fresh herbs (e.g., parsley, basil) for garnish
  • Bread for serving

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and garlic, sautéing until soft and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Add the chopped carrots, celery, and diced potato to the pot. Stir everything together, letting the vegetables start to soften for about 5 minutes.
  3. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer until the veggies are tender, roughly 15 minutes.
  4. Stir in the heavy cream and the mixed vegetables. Season your soup with dried thyme, salt, and pepper, adjusting to taste.
  5. Allow it to cook for an additional 5-10 minutes, until everything is heated through and the flavors meld beautifully.
  6. Serve your soup hot, garnishing with fresh herbs and enjoy alongside a crusty piece of bread for a truly comforting meal.

Notes

For a creamier texture, blend a small portion of the soup before adding the cream. Feel free to customize with your favorite vegetables.
