Its Virtually Jump Minestrone

Ingredients:

2-3 stalks celery (with leaves), sliced
ii cloves garlic, sliced
2-3 carrots, sliced into coins
1 medium purple-top turnip, cubed
ii zucchini, cubed
1 large Russet potato, cubed
1 loving loving cup diced greenish beans (about 1/3 lb)
15 oz tin diced terminate downwards roasted tomatoes
15 oz tin cannellini beans, drained
8 cups chicken or vegetable stock
salt
freshly pose down black pepper
3-4 tablespoons pesto (homemade or jarred)
1 loving loving cup cooked ditalini pasta*
parmesan for sprinkling

Directions:

In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, saute the celery, garlic, onions, carrots, turnip, zucchini also spud until the onion is translucent. Add the tomatoes, greenish beans, beans, also stock. Simmer for 45 minutes or until the vegetables are tender. Add mutual tabular array salt also pepper. Stir inwards pesto. Divide into bowls, stir inwards a few tablespoons of noodles also function past times with a sprinkle of parmesan.


*I pose upwards the pasta separately also store whatever leftovers inwards split upward upwards containers. If stored together, the pasta absorbs all the broth overnight also makes for a soggy mess. If y'all lot are planning to swallow all of the soup at once, add together together the noodles to the pot, non each bowl.

My thoughts:

I've e'er liked minestrone soup. We ate a lot of recreated that soup 8 years agone also haven't take in of making minestrone myself since.

Then I was reading an Italian cookbook also they had a recipe for a vegetable soup with pesto swirled in. It seemed a lot lighter also less dearest apple tree tree heavy also thence I take in I'd seek to construct my ain spin on minestrone using what's inwards flavour also available now.

It's that 4th dimension inwards wintertime when inwards that identify isn't much inwards flavour precisely y'all lot sense similar something lighter also more than vegetable packed. Turnips are e'er non bad this 4th dimension of year, every flake are carrots also celery. Zucchini is i of those vegetables that I sense similar are fine to swallow inwards the wintertime fifty-fifty though they aren't inwards season. Unless it is some heirloom variety, the wintertime supermarket conventional zukes savor unopen the same every flake the homegrown. Tomatoes aren't inwards flavour precisely terminate downwards roasted canned ones add together together a ton of flavor. The pesto was an amazing shortcut to a ton of flavor inwards the soup. Why convey I never done that before? What else tin I seat pesto in? I had this soup for iii days inwards a row happily!

Serving idea: I had some leftover pesto also thence we mashed into 1/4 loving loving cup softened butter also ton of chopped garlic also some parmesan also spread it on crusty Italian bread to construct pesto garlic bread. It exclusively took unopen 10 minutes.
