When the air turns crisp, nothing hits the spot quite like a big pot of homemade vegetable soup. It is the kind of meal that makes your whole house smell wonderful and keeps everyone coming back for seconds.

This recipe is very flexible, so feel free to toss in whatever seasonal vegetables you have in your fridge. I love serving this with a slice of crusty bread for dipping.

  7. 7

    Season everything with salt and pepper before serving.

Tips

Store your leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. This soup actually tastes even better the next day after the flavors have had time to blend. You can freeze individual portions for a quick lunch on busy days.
