2. Add diced onions, carrots, celery, sundried tomatoes, and minced garlic to the pot and sauté for 3-4 minutes until vegetables are translucent.
3. Sprinkle flour over the veggie mixture and stir to combine. If using tomato paste, mix it in now.
4. Gradually whisk in chicken broth while stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
