What I will be eating for the next 2 weeks, lol

Hi All,

 

We are getting ready to get a bit blustery here in Oklahoma City tomorrow, so I decided it is time for my first soup of the winter. When I make it, I make a huge pot full and freeze it in individual containers and have enough for at least 2 weeks unless I share some with Mom or Sis.

 

Here's my Minestrone Recipe

 

First, I boiled a 1 pound page of Great Northern beans for 2 hours until done.

 

Then I drained them and saved the liquid for the soup. Adding enough water to the drained beans water, I then added:

 

3 carrots chopped small

1/2 head of cabbage, cut into small squares

2 medium onions, chopped

1 cup of sliced celery

2 cups of diced zucchini

1 cup of frozen greenbeans

 

Simmer for at least 1 hour, then add:

 

1 28 oz can tomato puree

1 small can tomato paste

1 Tbl. dried rosemary (yummy, my favorite herb, but be creative, if you love basil or oregano, use that instead or a mixture)

1 Tbl. onion powder

1 Tbl. garlic powder

2 cups of cooked Great Northern Beans

 

If you need to add additional water, that is okay, this is a huge pot of soup and the extra can of tomato paste will give great flavor.

 

Note: Sometimes I will add 2 cups of whole wheat pasta dry and let it cook in the soup.

 

Note: I eat a very very low-salt diet so did not add any salt because of the salt in the tomato puree and paste, but you can add sea salt to taste.

 

Note: If you are craving Mexican, instead of the herb, just add 1/4 cup of chili powder. That is very good too.

 

 

I will eat this everyday for lunch with a sandwich and be very happy!

 

Till next time,

Gina
