Preparation steps

In a large saucepan, combine all ingredients; add just enough water to cover the mixture.

Bring to a boil; reduce heat, partially cover, and simmer for 30 minutes.

Remove soup from heat and cool briefly. Remove bay leaves. Working in batches, puree in blender until desired consistency is reached, depending on preference (coarse or smooth).

Adjust seasoning as necessary. Reheat if necessary. Ladle into serving bowls. Serve.
