One Pot Creamy Vegetable Soup:

We love one pot meals. This vegetable soup is ready in less than 30 minutes and it is warm and comforting on a cold fall day. The best part about one part meals is easy clean up and more family time.

We are a busy family and serving this soup ensures that my family is having a good home cook meal.

The best vegetables to use:

This recipe calls for potatoes, carrots, celery and broccoli. However, I am a huge advocate of using what you have on hand.

Other ideas include: cauliflower, peas, green beans, sweet potato, red peppers or whatever you like!Make this soup your own and it is sure to be a family favorite. You can even use frozen vegetables to save time in this Vegetable Soup recipe. Feel free to do this and use what you have.

When cutting up your vegetables, make sure they are similar in size. This makes sure that they are all cooked at the same time.

Money saving tips:

We are always looking for ideas to make meal prep and dinner time easier around here. Life is crazy with 8 kids and anything I can do to save time is a winner in my book.

Many of the recipes we make call from chopped onion or green peppers. I use asmall food chopper or food processorto quickly and easily chop onions. If you do not have one of these, I highly recommend them. You can also freeze onionsand alsofreeze peppersto save so much time in the kitchen!

I usually just chop the entire vegetable and freeze what I don’t need. It’s so nice to be able to just take the diced onion out of the freezer for recipes. This is how I meal prep. It’s so quick and easy and helps get dinner on the table fast.

What can I add to soup to make it creamy?

To make this soup creamy all you need to do is melt the butter and mix with the flour and milk. You can also blend with a immersion blender. This makes the soup so creamy without having to add heavy cream. Once adding the creamy mixture to the broth and vegetables, it makes the best soup everyone will enjoy.

  • Gluten Free – Replace the flour with cornstarch, but use half the amount it calls for.
  • Dairy Free – Replace the butter for vegetable oil and use almond milk or coconut milk instead of regular milk.

Creamy soups always make for a great dinner. It just feels good for the soul.

Side Ideas:

We love having a side when we serve any type of soup. In my opinion, you just need something else. Here are some of our favorites:

  • Serve this tasty soup with saltine crackers for a quick meal or crusty Italian bread if you have a loaf on hand. I try to always keep a loaf in the freezer. When the bakery marks loaves down, I buy a few for the freezer. This is so handy to have this on hand and for a great deal too.
  • If you have a few extra minutes, try making Easy Homemade Dinner Rolls Recipe.I love to dip the rolls in the soup to get every last drop of the delicious broth.

This vegetable soup is just the best and you can’t go wrong with crusty bread. We also love to add more shredded cheese to this delicious soup right before serving.
