Ingredients

  • 2 stalk celery chopped
  • 1 carrot medium, chopped
  • 1 yellow onion chopped
  • ½ zucchini chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • ¼ tsp turmeric
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 6 cup water or more to thin
  • fresh parsley chopped, optional

Instructions

  • Add the celery, carrot, onion, zucchini and garlic to a pan over medium heat along with the turmeric and salt. Saute until fragrant, approximately 5 minutes. Pour in the 6 cups of water, and bring to a roaring boil. Lower the heat, and simmer, uncovered, for approximately 10 minutes. 
  • When safe to handle, using an immersion blender or countertop blender, combine the soup until a velvety smooth broth is formed. You can add more water as needed to thin to a desired consistency and sprinkle in fresh parsley for color.
  • Use this as a nutrient dense broth of soups, to cook your rice in or for sautéing vegetables.
