Minestrone Soup (Recipe)

Ingredients


  • 3/4 cup onion diced
  • 1/2 cup celery sliced
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (Kasadrinos **FREE Bottle**)
  • 1/2 cup carrots peeled, quartered and sliced
  • 1 zucchini quartered and sliced
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 14 ounce can diced tomatoes
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1/4 cup tomato paste
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • 1 15 ounce can small white beans drained and rinsed
  • 1 15 ounce can kidney beans drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup frozen cut green beans
  • 2 cups baby spinach leaves
  • 2 tablespoons chopped parsley

Instructions

  • 1.  Chop and prepare all necessary ingredients. Set a large 6-8 quart saucepot over medium heat.


  • 2. Add the olive oil to the pot. Once hot, add the chopped onions, carrots, celery, and garlic. Generously salt and pepper. Sauté for 4-6 minutes to soften.


  • 3. Add the vegetable broth, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, Italian seasoning, and crushed red pepper. Bring to a boil.


  • 4. Once boiling, stir in the kidney beans, great northern beans, green beans, and pasta. Stir well and simmer for 8-10 minutes, partially covered. Make sure to stir every 2 minutes, so the pasta doesn’t stick to the bottom.


  • 5. Finally, add in the sliced zucchini, spinach leaves, and parsley. Stir and simmer for 2 minutes. Taste, then salt and pepper as needed. Serve warm.

Enjoy!
