Who doesn’t love a one-pot meal on a busy weeknight? As a busy mom of two young kiddos this is my kind of nourishing meal. I love that this soup is high in protein, jam packed with veggies that my kids will actually eat, and makes excellent leftovers for the week. Bonus, it freezes well too! Enjoy.

Directions
- Heat the ghee in a large dutch oven over medium high heat. Once hot add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally for about 5 minutes. Add the celery, carrots, garlic, thyme and salt. Cook, stirring to coat the veggies in the thyme/salt.
