Feel free to customize the vegetables to your liking. Diced zucchini, chopped bell peppers, or even some shredded cabbage would be excellent additions.
If you prefer a thicker soup, you can mix a tablespoon of cornstarch with a little cold water and stir it into the soup during the last hour of cooking.
This soup freezes well, making it perfect for meal prepping. Allow the soup to cool completely before transferring it to freezer-safe containers.
