Easy. Healthy. Delicious. In case you’re not following OrnaBakes on Facebook or Instagram (yet 😉) and missed yesterday’s big reveal—here’s the recipe! Please share it with your peeps (you can share it right from the recipe on my OrnaBakes Facebook page) and make sure to tag me if you make it. And don’t be afraid of the curry powder. It just adds deliciousness but won’t make the soup spicy or taste of curry. Trust me! Annnnd sorry if you don’t live near Trader Joe’s. Let me know if you need assistance adapting the recipe. BTW I doubled it because every time I make it I end up giving so much away (nothing says I love you like a quart of homemade vegetable soup!) that I always wish I had more to freeze. I love the one and two-quart containers from Smart and Final for freezing and gifting. Hope you love it as much as we do! xoxo Orna Simply the Best Vegetable Soup Ever!
