Number of Servings: 10

Ingredients

    Leeks, 2 cup
    Celery, raw, 1 cup, diced
    *Del Monte Petite Cut Diced Tomatoes, 2 cup
    Olive Oil, 3 tbsp
    Carrots, raw, 1 cup, grated
    Broccolini, 2 cup
    Spinach, fresh, 6 cup
    Red Wine, 8 fl oz
    Basil, dried, 1.5 tbsp
    Oregano, dried, 1.5 tbsp
    Thyme, dried, .75 tbsp
    Beans, Cannellini, 2 cup
    Beans, White, 2 cup
    Pepper, black, 1 tsp
    Vegetable Broth, 7 cup
    Tomato Paste, .5 can (6 oz)
    Garlic, 5 cloves
    Fusilli pasta, 3/4 cup

Directions

This is a very "chunky" but healthy minestrone that's easy to make. If you like you your minestrone a little soupier then I'd suggest using only 1 can of beans and reducing the broccolini and spinach a bit.

Saute leeks and celery in olive oil until soft about 6 mins.
Add chopped garlic, saute for 1 minute
Add wine and allow to cook out alcohol for about 2 mins.
Add broth, shredded carrots, tomatoes, and herbs and simmer for 15 mins.
Add chopped broccolini simmer for another 5 minutes
Add Fusilli pasta and beans, simmer 8 minutes
Add chopped spinach, simmer for 5 minutes
Pepper to taste
