Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 cup green olives, pitted and chopped
  • 2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 4 cups vegetable broth

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather all ingredients including green olives, peeled and diced potatoes, chopped onion, and vegetable broth.
  2. Simmer Ingredients: In a large pot, combine the potatoes, onion, green olives, and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer for about 20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
  3. Blend Soup: Remove the pot from heat and use an immersion blender or transfer the soup in batches to a blender. Blend until the soup is smooth and creamy.
  4. Serve: Return the soup to the pot if needed and heat gently before serving. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, garnish with a drizzle of olive oil or a sprinkle of fresh herbs like parsley or thyme.
  • If the soup is too thick, add more vegetable broth to reach desired consistency.
  • Use low sodium vegetable broth to control salt levels, as olives can be salty.
  • Ensure olives are pitted before use to avoid any bitterness or choking hazard.
