ITALIAN VEGETABLE SOUP

Italian Vegetable Soup, a delicious good for you full of veggies soup recipe, fast, easy,vegan and vegetarian the perfect comfort food soup.

Provided by Rosemary Molloy

Categories     Main Dish

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 13

5 cups mixed chopped vegetables (medium to large chopped / I used kale cabbage, carrots, celery, broccoli and zucchini)
3 cups frozen Borlotti beans **
1-2 cloves garlic chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon basil
1 teaspoon oregano
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup tomato purée (passata)
7-8 cups water
1 bouillon cube (if desired)
pinch or 2 hot pepper flakes
1-1 1/4 cups small pasta (dried)

Steps:

  • In a large pot add olive oil, garlic, vegetables, beans, spices, tomato purée, water and bouillon cube, stir to combine, bring to a boil and then turn heat down to simmer for approximately 30-45 minutes or until beans are tender (halfway through taste for salt). I would advise making your pasta separately in a pot of boiling salted water and then adding it to the soup (if you are keeping half the soup for later consumption then make half the pasta and only add it to the soup you will be eating or the pasta will get mushy). Enjoy!
  • **Dried soaked bean are fine too, they may take longer to cook.
