Meaty Veggie Soup

For each serving:

1-2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/2 onion, chopped
1-1/2-2 cups chopped mixed low-starch veggies (for example, zucchini, yellow squash, asparagus, broccoli, cauliflower)
1 cup diced stewed tomatoes (seasoned as you like)
Broth (beef, chicken, vegetable, or mushroom)
Two meal-sized servings of protein - meat, chicken or seafood

Heat a couple of teaspoons olive oil in a soup pot or large saucepan and saute the garlic and onion until limp. If you're cooking the protein fresh in the soup, add small cubes of meat/poultry/seafood now and cook for several minutes, stirring to ensure cooking on all sides and through to the center.

Add the fresh veggies and continue to stir to saute them for a few minutes, until they begin to soften. Add the tomatoes, the broth, and salt and pepper to taste.

If you are using leftover meat, poultry or seafood, add it at this point.

Bring soup to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for a few minutes (up to about an hour) over low heat.

For a taste delight, sprinkle a teaspoon or two of finely chopped fresh basil or cilantro onto each bowlful just prior to serving. Double or triple or even quadruple the basic recipe of you've got a large enough pot to accommodate it and store the extra servings in the fridge for lunches or dinners on subsequent days.
