Minestrone-3

Minestrone soup is one of our favorites at home, normally I use a basis with passata, but this version from Nigella from her book “Kitchen” is absolutely delicious. The good thing from such a soup is that you can just change the ingredients with whatever you might have left over in your refrigerator, perfect to avoid food waste. Also is just what I called a vitamin bomb, since you are using a lot of vegetables and soup is one of the healthiest ways to have your vitamin portion for the day.

In this recipe you need, leak, zucchini, white cabbage, green beans, vegetable stock, soup pasta, white wine and parmesan cheese. I didn’t use green beans, since I am quite allergic, in place I had broccoli and I also add some celery, I love the taste of it. The stock was self-made, I always have some at home, perfect to freeze in small portions.
