Ingredients

    2 medium leeks
    2 zucchini
    1/4 medium onion
    20 baby carrots
    20 4-inch green beans
    2 red potatoes
    3 tbsp olive oil
    3 tbsp water
    3 cups water
    3 cups low sodium chicken broth

    5 garden tomatoes
    6 cloves of garlic
    20 basil leaves
    3 tbsp olive oil

Directions

Cut the leeks, potato, onion, zucchini, green beans, and carrots into about a 1/4-inch dice.
In a 6-quart stockpot, combine 3 tablespoons of the olive oil with the 3 tablespoons water. Add the vegetables and sauté over medium-low heat until all the water evaporates. Do not let the vegetables brown.
Add the water and chicken broth and bring to a boil. Cook, uncovered, at a gentle boil for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a food processor or blender fitted with the metal blade, put the tomatoes, basil, garlic, and remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil. Pulse until pureed.
Stir the puree into the cooked soup. Do not let the soup return to a boil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve the soup hot or cold.
