I created this minestrone soup after becoming tired of the excess salt and lack of veggies in canned ones. I based this recipe off of the delicious, vegetable-rich minestrone served at Sheepherder's Inn in Sacramento, California. Serve with hearty bread, romaine salad, and a nice merlot.

Ingredients

  • olive oil: 3 Tbsp
  • garlic: 3 clove (chopped)
  • onions: 2 piece (chopped)
  • celery: 2 cups (chopped)
  • carrots: 5 piece (sliced)
  • tomato sauce: 4 cups
  • chicken broth: 2 cups
  • water: 2 cups
  • red wine: 0.5 cup (optional)
  • zucchinis, quartered and: 3 piece (sliced)
  • baby spinach, rinsed: 2 cups
  • or frozen green beans: 2 cups (cut into 1 1/2 inch pieces, fresh)
  • canned kidney beans: 1 cup (drained)
  • fresh basil: 2 Tbsp (chopped)
  • fresh oregano: 1 Tbsp (chopped)
  • salt and pepper: (to taste)
  • seashell pasta: 0.5 cup
  • Parmesan cheese: 2 Tbsp (for topping, grated)
  • olive oil: 1 Tbsp
