Ingredients:

Serving

3 tbsp olive oil (45 ml)
1 medium onion, chopped
1 carrot, chopped
1 celery, chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
salt & freshly ground black pepper
6 cups vegetable stock or 6 cups chicken stock or 6 cups water , (1.5 litre)
2 medium tomatoes, peeled, seeded, chopped or 3 canned tomatoes, with their juice
4 -6 cups quick-cooking vegetables , such as string beans , cauliflower , broccoli , asparagus , corn kernels , cooked beans, zucchini , squash (1 litre to 1.5 l)
1/2 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley (125 ml)

Directions:

Using a large, deep pot over medium heat, heat two tablespoons (30 mL) of the oil and cook onion, carrot, celery and garlic.
Sprinkle with salt and pepper and cook just until onion softens, about five minutes.
Add stock, tomatoes and remaining vegetables and bring to a boil. Immediately lower heat so mixture bubbles, and cook until all the vegetables are tender, about 10 to 15 minutes.
Season with additional salt and pepper to taste and add remaining one tablespoon oil. Serve hot.
