Preparation
- Start by chopping the cabbage, dicing the tomatoes, and slicing the carrots, bell pepper, and onion. Mince the garlic.
Cooking
- In a large pot, add a splash of olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the onion and garlic until fragrant and the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Pour in the vegetable broth and then add the tomatoes, cabbage, carrots, and bell pepper. Stir to combine.
- Sprinkle in the Italian seasoning, along with salt and pepper to taste. Bring the pot to a gentle boil.
- Reduce the heat and allow the soup to simmer for about 20-25 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Feel free to add red pepper flakes for extra kick as desired.
Serving
- Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
