Ingredients
Scale
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup chopped yellow onion (1 medium)
1 cup chopped carrots (2 medium)
1 cup chopped celery (2 stalks)
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
4 cups vegetable broth
1 cup frozen peas
1 cup frozen corn
1/2 cup half-and-half or heavy cream
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, and celery. Cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
Pour in vegetable broth and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 10 minutes, or until vegetables are tender.
Stir in frozen peas and corn. Cook for 5 minutes more, or until heated through.
Stir in half-and-half or heavy cream and fresh parsley. Heat gently until warmed through, but do not boil.
Serve hot.
Notes
For a thicker soup, you can whisk together 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour or cornstarch with 1/4 cup of cold water and stir it into the simmering soup before adding the cream.
This soup can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop.
Freeze cooled soup in airtight containers for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator and reheat as directed.
