Categories     Dinner     Lunch     Soup

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 cloves garlic ($0.24)
1 yellow onion ($0.32)
1/2 lb. carrots (about 4 medium) ($0.30)
3 ribs celery ($0.46)
2 Tbsp olive oil ($0.32)
1 Tbsp dried basil ($0.30)
1 Tbsp dried oregano ($0.30)
3 8oz. cans tomato sauce ($0.75)
3 15oz. cans diced tomatoes ($1.35)
1.5 cups vegetable broth ($0.20)
1 10oz. pkg frozen chopped spinach ($0.99)
8 oz. Swiss cheese ($1.69)

Steps:

  • Mince the garlic, dice the onion, peel and slice the carrots, and slice the celery. Add the onion, garlic, carrots, and celery to a large soup pot with the olive oil and sauté over medium heat for about five minutes, or until the onions are soft.
  • Add the tomato sauce, diced tomatoes (with juices), vegetable broth, basil, and oregano to the pot. Stir to combine, then allow the soup to come to a simmer.
  • Once the soup is simmering, add the frozen spinach (no need to thaw). Stir the spinach into the hot soup until it has melted and heated through.
  • Once the spinach is thoroughly mixed into the soup, give the soup a taste and add salt if needed. I did not add any, but this will ultimately depend on the sodium content of your canned goods and vegetable broth.
  • Dice the swiss cheese into small cubes. Add a small handful of cubes to each bowl, then ladle the hot soup over top. Serve and enjoy!
