Green Minestrone

Flowers always boost our mood, whether we are holding a bouquet or gazing at them on our nails.

Recipe Summary Green Minestrone

This is the classic and authentic Italian minestrone with a green twist. No tomatoes here! You may brown some pancetta or bacon in olive oil before proceeding with the recipe if you wish. I prefer to use a good quality vegetable bouillon to vegetable broth. The taste is more authentic and you simply need to skip the salt.

Ingredients | Emerald Green Nails Design

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 white onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, pressed

1 ½ cups frozen cut green beans

1 cup frozen peas

2 large zucchini, chopped

10 cups vegetable broth

½ teaspoon minced fresh rosemary

2 cups cooked great Northern beans

¾ cup ditalini pasta

½ cup minced fresh parsley

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, or as needed

Directions

Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat; cook and stir onion and garlic until onion is translucent, about 10 minutes. Add green beans, peas, and zucchini; toss to coat vegetables with oil.

Slowly stream vegetable broth into vegetable mixture; bring to a simmer over medium heat. Stir in rosemary and great Northern beans and bring back to a simmer, about 5 minutes. Add ditalini pasta and simmer soup until pasta is tender but firm to the bite and soup has thickened, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in parsley.

Ladle soup into serving bowls and top each serving with 1 heaping tablespoon Parmesan cheese; season with salt and black pepper. Garnish soup with a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil.
