Summer Garden Soup
This soup is very tasty, and the best part is that all of the main ingredients come straight from my garden. It's even good when served chilled.

- 1 cup chopped onion
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 to 6 garlic cloves, minced

Reviews
How is this recipe only 77 mg sodium when you use 3 1/2 cups of chicken broth? Even unsalted chicken broth has 45 mg per cup?
This soup was fabulous!! I doubled it, used all fresh garden vegetables. I didn't have green beans so subbed okra and the peas I had on hand were lady peas from the garden. I also added a dollop of pesto on top and cornbread as a side. The Hubby thought it was tasty and he's not a huge fan of soup. This is a go to recipe for me now!
