Instructions

In a large soup pot, over medium-high heat, add olive oil, onions, carrots, celery, salt and garlic. Sauté for 5 minutes.
Pour in chicken broth, diced tomatoes, potatoes, frozen green beans, parsley, bay leaves, basil, salt, Italian seasoning, thyme, & pepper. Stir together. Bring it to a boil (you may have to turn the heat up to do this). Once boiling, cover with lid, and reduce heat to medium-low. Let simmer for 20-25 minutes or until the potatoes and green beans are tender.
Add the frozen peas and corn into the soup. Stir and cover with lid. Let simmer for 15 minutes.
Take out the 2 bay leaves and serve! Leftovers keep well in the fridge for up to one week. Soup can be frozen. Just reheat on the stove top and add additional broth or water if necessary.

Notes

Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to one week.
For freezing, reheat on the stove top and add broth or water as needed.
