Instructions
In a large pot, heat about 2 tablespoons of oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onion is soft and translucent.

Cover the pot and let it simmer for about 30 minutes.
Once cooking time is up, taste your soup and season with salt and pepper as needed.
