So far the winter hasn't been too bad here in NY. Thank goodness!! But this weekend it was pretty chilly. Warm, homemade soup was calling my name. I found this recipe on foodnetwork.com. The whole family loved it! It makes a lot so we ate it for a few days with crusty bread. I loved it because it's full of veggies and not too heavy. Perfect soup for the cold winter months!
Vegetable Soup
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cups chopped leeks, white part only (from approximately 3 medium leeks)
- 2 tablespoons finely minced garlic
- Kosher salt
- 2 cups carrots, peeled and chopped into rounds (approximately 2 medium)
- 2 cups peeled and diced potatoes
- 2 cups fresh green beans, broken or cut into 3/4-inch pieces
- 2 quarts chicken or vegetable broth
- 4 cups peeled, seeded, and chopped tomatoes (I used 2 cans diced tomatoes)
- 2 ears corn, kernels removed(I used 1 cup frozen corn)
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup packed, chopped fresh parsley leaves
- 1 to 2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (I didn't have this so I left it out)

Yum, it is snowing outside and I want this soup now. I just don't want to scrape off my car to go to the store and get the ingredients for it :) Can't wait for AZ weather!
