Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 stalks celery, finely chopped
2 medium carrots, finely chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups Swanson® Chicken Broth or Swanson® Certified Organic Chicken Broth or Swanson® Natural Goodness® Chicken Broth

Steps:

Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Cook the celery, carrots, onion and garlic until they're tender.
Stir the broth, Italian seasoning and tomatoes in the skillet. Heat to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 15 minutes or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
