Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 medium carrots, diced
- 2 celery stalks, diced
- 1 medium potato, peeled and cubed

- 2 cups cooked egg noodles or any pasta of your choice

- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until translucent.
