Spicy 'n Moolicious Minestrone


This soup is for all the vegetable loving porcos out there. Ok, so here's what you need.


- 5 cloves minced garlic, 1 diced onion, 2 minced hot red pepper.

- 1 small zucchini, 1 diced parsnip, 1 diced carrot, 1 diced celery stalk, a handful of green beans cut into bite sized pieces, 1 can of drained chic peas.

- 1 box chicken stock, 2 cups tomato sauce (I used a homemade frozen).

- spinach flavored gnocchi, a few handfuls pasta- I used a vegetable blend of penne.


THE NUMBER ONE THING TO DO: PREP ALL YOUR INGREDIENTS IN ADVANCE!

1. Heat up some olive oil in your soup pot, toss in onion, garlic, hot peppers and saute for 5 minutes.

2. Throw in all veggies and chic peas, saute 5 minutes more.

3. Add stock and tomato sauce, bring to a simmer for 20 minutes.

4. In the last 5 minutes, add gnocchi and penne...


Serve with a nice fresh bun!


Moolicious!
