Ingredients
- 1 whole Vidalia Onion, Diced ⓘ
- 2 stalks Celery, Diced
- 1 cup Diced Carrots ⓘ
- 2 teaspoons Olive Oil ⓘ
- 2 cloves Garlic, Peeled And Minced
- 1 teaspoon Dry Thyme ⓘ
- 1/4 teaspoons Dry Tarragon ⓘ
- 1 can (28 Oz. Size) Fire Roasted Diced Tomatoes
- 1 can (16 Oz. Size) Unseasoned Tomato Sauce ⓘ
- 8 cups Vegetable Broth ⓘ
- 1 cup Alphabet Pasta ⓘ
- 1 bag (16 Oz. Size) Frozen Mixed Vegetables (peas, Carrots, Corn) ⓘ
Instructions
- 1. Put your diced vegetables (onions, celery and carrots) into a large pot with the olive oil. Saute over medium heat until the vegetables begin to soften without browning, for about 5 minutes.
- 2. Add your minced garlic, thyme and tarragon to the pot and saute for another minute.
- 3. Pour your diced fire roasted tomatoes, tomato sauce, and vegetable broth into the pot and bring to a simmer. Be sure to get fire roasted tomatoes because they make such a difference in the flavor of this dish!
- 4. Add the alphabet pasta to the simmering soup. Return to a simmer and continue to cook on low heat while maintaining a simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the pasta becomes soft and cooked through. Be sure to stir your soup every few minutes so that the pasta doesn't stick and burn to the bottom of the pot (I've totally done that)!
- 5. For the final step, pour the frozen vegetables into the pot and stir in the agave nectar. Return the soup to a simmer and continue to cook for another 3 minutes. Then you're ready to serve. I typically serve this dish with whole grain toast and a side salad for a complete weeknight meal!
