    • 2 bell peppers (any color), chopped
    • 3 celery stalks, chopped
  2. Canned Goods & Liquids:
    • 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes (with juice)
    • 6 cups vegetable broth
  3. Seasonings & Optional Additions:
    1. 1–2 cloves garlic, minced
    2. 1 teaspoon dried thyme
    3. 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric (optional, for added health benefits)
    4. 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
    5. 1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional, for brightness)
    6. Salt, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Vegetables:
    • Chop the cabbage, onion, carrots, bell peppers, and celery into bite-sized pieces. Mince the garlic.
  2. Sauté Aromatics:
    • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 3–4 minutes until fragrant and softened.

  4. Simmer the Soup:
    • Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered for 30–40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and flavors meld.
  5. Finish and Adjust:
    • Stir in lemon juice for a bright, fresh flavor if desired. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed with additional salt or pepper.
  6. Serve:
