3 cloves garlic, minced

4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
1 cup heavy cream (or coconut milk for dairy-free)

Instructions

Prepare vegetables by washing and chopping them into bite-sized pieces.
In a large pot over medium heat, add a splash of olive oil. Sauté onions and garlic until fragrant, about 5 minutes.
