Step 1

Spray a large soup pot with cooking spray or drizzle with olive oil. Add the onion, celery, carrots, and garlic. Cook for 4-5 minutes until the onion begins to become translucent. If veggies begin to burn at all, add a few tablespoons of water or broth.

Step 2

Add the cabbage, green beans, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and bay leaves. Stir and cook for 5 minutes.

Step 3

Add the chicken broth, canned tomatoes, and tomato paste. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 10 minutes until the cabbage is just tender.

Step 4

Stir in the corn and peas. Cook for 2-3 minutes until warmed through.
