To prepare, you typically combine the contents of the package with a specified amount of water or broth in a pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer until the vegetables are tender and the flavors have melded. You can enhance the soup by adding fresh ingredients like extra vegetables, pasta, or even a dollop of sour cream. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
