Cuisine:

Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 medium onion
- 1 cup chopped carrots
- 1 celery stalk
- 3 cloves garlic
- 30 oz fresh plum tomatoes or you can use canned tomotoes, peeled
- 32 oz vegetable broth
- 3 sprigs parsley
- 10 basil leaves
- 2 bay leaves
- Parmesan cheese for serving optional
Notes
- **From the beginning I used my food processor to chop all the vegetables. I let them process for a minute to get them as chopped/pureed as possible. I skipped using the hand blender at the end because I didn’t mind that my soup wasn’t super smooth.Makes 8 cups. About 115 calories per 2 cup serving.
