Tomato Vegetable Soup Recipe

Sauté leek in a little oil for 5-10 minutes. Add all other ingredients except the crushed and diced tomatoes. Add enough water just to cover all of the vegetables. Cook until everything is soft. Remove the bay leaves. For a smoother texture, puree the vegetables in a food processor, blender, or with an immersion blender. Add crushed tomatoes and diced tomatoes.
