1 clove minced Garlic
1/2 cup diced Fresh Tomatoes

PREPARATION
In a medium pot, heat one teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil over medium heat.

Pour in the vegetable broth and add the bay leaf and dried thyme.
Bring the mixture to a simmer and add the diced tomatoes. Let it cook for about 5 minutes to combine the flavors.
