Method
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute, until fragrant.
- Sprinkle the flour over the onion and garlic mixture. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the flour is incorporated and the mixture is slightly golden.
- Slowly pour in the vegetable broth, whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Once the broth is smooth, add the milk and heavy cream.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
- Add the mixed vegetables, dried thyme, and dried parsley to the pot. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Bring the soup back to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
- While the soup is simmering, preheat your oven according to the instructions on the biscuit dough package.
- Cut each biscuit into 6-8 pieces.
- Spread the biscuit pieces on a baking sheet and bake until golden brown and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.
- Ladle the Veggie Pot Pie Soup into bowls.
- Top with the biscuit crumbles and a sprinkle of fresh parsley, if desired.
- Serve immediately and enjoy.
Notes
For a richer flavor, substitute chicken broth for vegetable broth. To lighten the soup, use all milk instead of heavy cream. Feel free to experiment with different vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, or mushrooms. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days or freeze for up to 2-3 months. Store biscuit crumbles separately to prevent them from getting soggy. To thicken the soup, whisk together 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water and stir it into the soup during the last few minutes of cooking.
