Ingredients

    2 32oz. packages Organic Low Sodium Vegetable Broth
    4 large carrots, sliced into thin slices
    5 small red potatoes, roughly diced
    1 Celery heart, chopped
    About 1/4 of a small white onion, sliced
    1 Can of sweet yellow corn
    1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
    Salt & Pepper
    Poultry spices - fresh rosemary, sage & thyme (whole on branch/stalk)
    Ground Marjoram

Tips

I understand the irony of buying low sodium broth and then adding salt, but I like to start with less salt and then decide how much I want to eat. The broth is pretty flavorless without salt so be mindful of this and if sodium is not a concern, go for the full flavor!


Directions

Saute the onions in the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the vegetable broth
Bring to a rolling boil and add all chopped vegetables.
Cook for about 10 min and then liberally add salt and pepper to taste.
Throw your fresh herbs (on the stalk/branch) of Rosemary, Sage and Thyme on top of the soup, cover and let boil for about 30 minutes.
Check to see if carrots and potatoes are tender. If so, remove herbs, add a dash of ground marjoram, and taste to check on whether you need to add salt and pepper.
Let boil for another few minutes and serve!
