Recipe makes: 12 servings
What you will need:
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 onion, diced
2 carrots, peeled and diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
2 zucchini, diced
2 cups cabbage, shredded
2 cups swiss chard, chopped
2 cups broccoli, cut into florets
2 teaspoons thyme, chopped (or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme)
6 cups vegetable broth
2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons lemon juice (optional)
How to Make It:
-Put first 12 ingredients (garlic – broth) in a large pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat to a simmer and simmer partly covered for 10 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Leave veggies whole or I use an immersion blender and puree a bit — leaving some veggie chunks.
-Stir in parsley and season with salt, pepper and lemon juice.
