Cooking Time: Approximately 25 minsPreperation Time: Approximately 15 mins

Preparation

Begin by preparing your vegetables. Wash and dice the tomatoes, onions, celery, and carrots into bite-sized pieces. In a pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions, celery, and carrots, sautΓ©ing until they become soft, about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Cooking

To the pot, add the diced tomatoes along with the vegetable or chicken stock. Season with salt, pepper, and herbs like basil or parsley. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for at least 20-25 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together and the vegetables to become tender. For a smoother soup, blend until the desired consistency is reached.

Serving

Serve the soup hot, garnished with more fresh herbs if desired. Optional: For a richer flavor, a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of grated cheese can be added just before serving.
