A delicious and healthy vegetable soup that's perfect for any meal.
Prepare all the vegetables by washing and chopping them into bite-sized pieces.
Chop vegetables evenly to ensure they cook uniformly.
Heat a large saucepan over medium heat and add a splash of water to prevent sticking.
Using water instead of oil keeps the recipe low-calorie.
Add the onion, carrot, and celery to the saucepan and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir frequently to prevent the vegetables from sticking to the pan.
Pour in the beef broth and diced tomatoes, then add the cabbage, garlic, basil, and Cajun spice.
Mix well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 30 minutes.
Cover the saucepan partially to retain moisture while allowing some steam to escape.
Add the zucchini to the saucepan and continue simmering for an additional 10 minutes.
Adding zucchini later prevents it from becoming too mushy.
Serve the soup hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
Pair with a slice of whole-grain bread for a complete meal.
