Directions
In Dutch oven, combine all ingredients except parsley and pepper; mix well. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover and simmer 15 to 20 minutes or until vegetables are very tender. Remove bay leaf.
With potato masher, mash vegetables into broth to make a thick chunky mixture. (Garbanzo beans will not mash as thoroughly as other vegetables; leave as is for extra texture.) Stir in parsley and pepper. Serve immediately. Makes 6 (1½ cup) servings.
TIP: To speed preparation, use food processor with metal blade to chop onion, celery, and garlic. Replace metal blade with thin slicing disk; slice potatoes and carrots on top of chopped vegetables. Remove all vegetables from bowl. Clean and dry bowl before chopping parsley with metal blade.
