Italian Herb Soup

This Italian Herb Soup is so tasty. I made the sage croutons to go with it, cause we love the mix. If you want to buy store bought croutons or opt out if you prefer. I find the croutons add texture but also a lot of flavors that completes the dish.

You can make the Italian Herb Soup in the crockpot. Follow the directions on cooking your carrots and onions on the stove top first. Then transfer to your crockpot and dump the ingredients into the crockpot. Cook on low for 6 hours.

Does Italian Herb Soup Freeze Well

This soup freezes nicely. Just skip the yogurt part and use that for topping once you thaw and warm your soup back up.

When you freeze this soup pour into sealable freezer bags or even use storage containers that are freezer friendly. Freeze up to three months. Thaw in the fridge the night before you are ready to serve.

Meal Prep with Italian Herb Soup

Another great idea with this soup is to pour into single serve containers and use for meal prepping for the week. Maybe you want a light dinner or a quick lunch, just heat and eat. If you do freeze the soup, you could even use single serve containers to store your soup in, for a quick grab as you head out the door. Then by lunch, you could easily warm it up.

How to Make Italian Herb Soup

First, start by heating oil in a pot on the stove. Add in your onions and carrots and cook for around 10 minutes, making sure you stir frequently. This will help give flavor to your soup and soften up the carrots.

Then add in your tomatoes and water to your pot. Add in your tomato paste, herbs, and bring your pot to a boil. Top with a dollop of Greek yogurt and pair with croutons.

How to Make Sage Croutons

Grab some bread and trim away the crust. Add oil and garlic together in a bowl, and brush it onto the bread. Add a sprinkle of sage over the bread and bake for around 6 minutes or until crisp and golden. Cut the bread into triangles and serve.

We like to either place on top of the soup for serving or on the side. You might like to crunch it up and sprinkle over the soup, or even just dip the croutons into the soup. Either way is fantastic in flavor.

This soup is so simple to make. You can always improvise on vegetables used, or add more to it, for more layers of flavor. My whole family has enjoyed this soup as well as guests I have served it to over the years. Give it a try today, and let me know what you think!
