How to Make 1980's Weight Watchers Veggie Soup

  1. In a 1-quart nonstick saucepan, sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic over medium heat until the onion is translucent (about 5 minutes).
  2. Add the carrots, celery, green beans, potatoes, diced tomatoes (undrained), basil, oregano, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
  3. Cover and cook over low heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Pour in 2 cups of vegetable broth or water. Bring to a boil.
  5. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 20-25 minutes.
  6. Using a slotted spoon, remove about 1/2 cup of cooked vegetables and set aside.
  7. Carefully transfer the remaining soup in batches to a blender. Puree until smooth.
  8. Return the pureed soup to the saucepan. Add the reserved vegetables and stir to combine. Heat through for a few minutes.
  9. Season with salt to taste. Serve hot and enjoy!
