Ingredients
64 oz chicken or vegetable broth
3 tbsp olive oil
1 medium onion, minced
1 medium carrot, grated
3 large potatoes, cubed
4 cups spinach, chopped
1 zucchini, cubed
3 tbsp lemon juice
4 hard-boiled eggs, cubed
1/2 cup parsley or dill, chopped
Salt and pepper, to taste
Sour cream, for serving
Instructions
In a large pot or Dutch oven, bring the chicken or vegetable broth to a boil. Add the potatoes, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and carrot, then cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
Add the sautéed onion and carrot to the pot with the potatoes. Stir in the zucchini and spinach, then cook for 5–7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Add the lemon juice, cubed hard-boiled eggs, and parsley or dill.
Remove from the heat and serve immediately with a dollop of sour cream.
Notes
For easy hard-boiled eggs, boil the eggs ahead of time, cool them completely, peel, and cube before adding to the soup. Add the eggs at the end to keep their texture intact.
