Green Minestrone Soup

 

Ingredients

2 cups cooked french beans
2 heads broccoli
2 green Zucchini
1 bunch Spinach
2 cloves Garlic
2 celery Stalks
1 bunch basil, mint and parsley

 

METHOD

Start by making a soffrito of the thinly sliced garlic and diced celery. Cook down in a pot with some oil until it is translucent. 

Add the broccoli cut in small pieces and cover with water and cook until tender. Add the beans and bring up to a boil. Add the zucchini and spinach. Cook until everything is tender. Adjust seasoning with Salt and Pepper. 

Take 1/4 of the soup and place in a food processor and pulse until smooth, then add back to the pot. Depending on how smooth or chunky you like the soup, you can adjust how much you blend. 

Finish with nice olive oil
