1 Bell pepper, chopped

1 Carrot, cut in half lengthwise, then sliced

1-2 Cloves Garlic, minced

1/2 Cup Vegetable broth or water

1 Bunch Green onions, sliced in 1 inch pieces

1 Place the onion, bell pepper, carrot, and garlic in a large pot with the vegetable broth or water. Cook and stir over medium heat until vegetables soften slightly, about 4-5 minutes.
