1 medium onion, chopped

salt and ground black pepper
28 ounces whole tomatoes with basil, chopped juices reserved
4 cups vegetable broth
1 pound sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
4 medium carrots, peeled and thinly sliced
6 ounces green beans, cut into 1-inch pieces, (about 1 1/2 cups)
5 medium garlic cloves, minced
Heat oil in soup pot over medium-high heat. Add onion, celery,
herb blend, a few pinches of salt, and several grinds of pepper.
