Spicy Vegetable Soup

Spicy Vegetable Soup

1 1/2 cups sliced carrot
1 1/2 cups diced onion
5 garlic cloves, minced
6 cups broth (beef, chicken, or vegetable)
1/2 diced green cabbage
1 1/2 cups diced zucchini
1 16oz can of stewed tomatoes
1 8oz can diced tomatoes
1 tsp. dried basil
1/2 tsp. dried oregano
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. hot sauce (optional)

In large saucepan, sprayed with nonstick cooking spray, sauté onions, and garlic over low heat until softened, about 5 minutes. Add broth, cabbage, stewed tomatoes, diced tomatoes, zucchini, basil, oregano and salt; bring to a boil, cover, lower heat and simmer, about 45 minutes or until carrots are tender. For a thicker texture, let cool and puree ½ the pot, and for those who like a little sizzling flavor add some hot sauce, you won’t regret it. Serve hot. This soup can be frozen.
