The ingredients for Olga's Vegetable Soup are:

3/4 cup olive oil
2 onions, peeled and chopped
3 carrots, peeled and chopped
3 celery stalks, peeled and chopped
1 bunch parsley, washed and chopped, thick stems discarded
3 cabbage leaves, chopped
1 bunch chard, washed and chopped (you can use collard greens if you can't get chard)
1/4 cup tomato paste
3 cups cannellini beans or other white bean

Here is how you make Olga's Vegetable Soup:

1) Put about a third of the olive oil in the bottom of a deep pot over medium heat. Add half each of the chopped onions, carrots and celery, and cook stirring occasionally, until they soften (about 10 min.). Add half of the remaining oil and repeat the process, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Add the last of the oil with the parsley, cabbage and chard, and cook stirring occasionally until everything is softened but NOT browned. Adjust heat as necessary.2) Add the tomato paste and stir. Partially mash the beans, leaving some of them more or less whole; add them to the pot, along with any bean cooking liquid and enough water to make the whole mixture stewy but not too watery.3) Keep cooking, tasting and seasoning as necessary until all the vegetables are tender and the soup is hot.Number of Servings: 10Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user HRFORD.
