Can I Use Frozen Vegetables?
Definitely! The most time consuming part about making this soup is definitely all of the prep work involved — that means there is a lot of cutting you’ll have to do, especially if you use fresh vegetables. You can substitute frozen veggies for nearly all of the fresh ingredients in this recipe. Most come precut! We will say that we prefer fresh potatoes over frozen. The waxy skin varieties tend to hold up best in soup!
