Soups And Stews

Vegetable Pasta Soup

During the cold winter months, everyone loves to make soup. This is one of my favorite soups that I make on a regular basis. I make a lot of soup during the winter. How can one not? You throw everything in one pot and let it cook. It’s so simple and delicious. When I have veggies that I need to use up I make this soup.

INGREDIENTS:

3 tbsp coconut oil or water if you want to go oil free

6 cloves of garlic minced

1 onion diced

2 carrots sliced or diced

2 celery stalks diced

2 zucchini diced

2 (10 oz) cans diced tomatoes

9 cups vegetable broth

3 tbsp tomato paste

12 oz whole wheat or other types of pasta you choose

2 cans cannellini beans drained and rinsed

2 cups spinach

1 tsp basil chopped

salt and pepper (optional)

1 tsp parsley chopped

DIRECTIONS:

  1. In a large pot over medium heat add in the water or oil and add in the onion, garlic, carrots, and celery. Cook until tender. ABout 10 minutes or so.
  2. Add the zucchini and cook for about 2 minutes.
  3. Add the remaining ingredients and stir to combine. Allow it to cook for about 20 to 25 minutes until all vegetables are tender.
  4. Turn heat off and serve with crusty bread.
