How to Make Homemade Vegetable Soup From A Can
- Open and drain the canned diced tomatoes (reserve 1 tablespoon of the juice if desired for extra thickness).
- In a medium saucepan, combine the diced tomatoes, mixed vegetables, vegetable broth, water, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until heated through and flavors have melded. Stir occasionally.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more salt, pepper, or Italian seasoning to your preference.
- Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley (optional).
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
