In a large soup pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the onions and celery in the olive oil until tender (about 5 minutes), stirring frequently.
Add the garlic and cook and stir until fragrant (about 1 minute). Add the broth, fire-roasted tomatoes, carrots, bay leaves, and Italian seasoning.
Bring to a boil, then immediately reduce heat to medium. Cook, partially covered, over medium heat for 10 minutes.
Add the green beans, zucchini, and squash. Cook, partially covered, for another 10 minutes.
Add the potatoes and cook, partially covered, for another 15 to 20 minutes or until the potatoes and vegetables are tender.
Cook’s notes
*Non-vegetarians may substitute the vegetable broth with cartons of chicken or beef broth.
**Enjoy the fire-roasted flavor? If so, add two cans of diced fire-roasted tomatoes to the soup pot rather than one. Having trouble finding canned fire roasted tomatoes? Click the following link for a recipe to make your own: fire roasted tomatoes.
Chef’s tips
- Adding rice or noodles to this soup? If so, cook them separately, ladle the rice or noodles into individual bowls, and add the soup over top.
- Want to make this soup ahead and freeze it? Slightly undercook the potatoes to prevent them from overcooking when reheating on the stovetop.
