To make vegan minestrone soup, start by heating a tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add one diced onion, one diced carrot and one diced celery and sauté until softened. Stir in one can of diced tomatoes, one cup of vegetable broth and one cup of water. Bring the soup to a boil and then reduce the heat to low.
