Ingredients

Scale

Gather these ingredients to make Cream of Vegetable Soup:

  • 2 tablespoons butter or olive oil
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 medium carrot, peeled and chopped
  • 1 celery stalk, chopped
  • 1 zucchini, chopped
  • 1 potato, peeled and diced
  • 3 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream (or coconut milk for a dairy-free option)
  • ½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme or Italian seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Sauté the Aromatics:

  1. Melt the Butter: In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter (or heat olive oil) over medium heat.
  2. Cook the Onion and Garlic: Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in the garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.

Add the Vegetables:

  1. Layer the Vegetables: Add the carrot, celery, zucchini, and potato to the pot. Stir to combine with the aromatics. Cook for 5 minutes, allowing the vegetables to soften slightly.

Simmer the Soup:

  1. Pour in the Broth: Add the vegetable broth, salt, pepper, and thyme. Stir well and bring the soup to a boil.
  2. Reduce Heat and Simmer: Lower the heat to medium-low and let the soup simmer uncovered for 15-20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.

Blend the Soup:

  1. Blend Until Smooth: Remove the pot from the heat. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup directly in the pot until smooth and creamy. Alternatively, transfer the soup in batches to a blender and blend until smooth.
  2. Add the Cream: Stir in the heavy cream (or coconut milk) and mix until fully incorporated. Taste and adjust seasoning, if needed.

Garnish and Serve:

  1. Garnish: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with freshly chopped parsley. Serve hot and enjoy!
