- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 4 carrots, peeled and chopped
- 3 stalks celery stalks, chopped
- 2 yellow squash or green zucchini
- 1 teaspoon salt (Celtic or Himalayan)
- 6 cloves garlic, pressed or minced, or 2 tablespoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon turmeric
- ½ teaspoon thyme
- 28 ounces diced tomatoes
- 32 ounces organic vegetable broth

Instapot
Put everything in an Instapot and cook for 30 min on the soup setting.
Stovetop
In a large pot, sautee all the veggies and garlic in avocado oil over medium heat until they soften. Add all other ingredients, cover, and simmer for 25 to 30 minutes.
Additional Options
To give this soup a Spanish flair, add 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro, a slice of avocado, and squeeze in the juice from ¼ lime wedge before serving. Add these to your leftovers for an entirely different, delicious dish!
