It’s getting warmer, veggies are starting to pop up everywhere! In my opinion it’s never too warm for soup! It’s packed full of fiber and lots of nutrition! Plus it’s super easy to make.
Minestrone soup
2tsp olive oil
2 onions chopped
3 cloves of garlic chopped
2 carrots diced
2 stalks of celery diced
1 can 28oz chopped tomatos (with juice)
4 cups water
4 cups plain tomato juice
1C small shell pasta (uncooked still)
1 cup fresh green beans, cut in half
2 zucchini chopped
1 bag spinach torn
1 can light red kidney beans drained
1 can dark red kidney beans drained
Salt and pepper to taste
Parmesan cheese for garnish (optinal)
1) cut everything up before you even start trust me it will make your life a hell of a lot easier!!!!
2) in a large pot sauté onion, garlic, carrot and celery until soft.
3) add water and tomato juice, season lightly and allow to simmer for 45 minutes.
4) add green beans, zucchini, and kidney beans. Simmer for 20 minutes.
5) Add pasta and torn spinach and cook for 15 minutes or until pasta is tender.
6) season to taste and serve, or cool, portion and freeze!
Seriously, this is like the ultimate good for you soup! Better then chicken noodle in my humble opinion, and it’s beautiful! Eat as much as you want and you don’t have to even feel guilty about it!
I would have taken a picture of the result….but I kind of ate it all already…. sorrry guys 💔
Happy slurping
