Equipment

  • Large Pot

Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces ditalini pasta or other small shaped pasta
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 3 stalks celery chopped
  • 1/2 large zucchini chopped (about 1.5 cups chopped zucchini)
  • 2 14 ounce cans white beans drained and rinsed, about 3 cups
  • 4 cups Vegetable Stock
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon Sea Salt
  • 3 cups baby spinach
  • 1/2 lemon juiced (about 1/4 cup)
  • 1/4 cup parmesan cheese for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Cook pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  • In a large pot, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Add the garlic, celery, and zucchini, and sauté for 7-8 minutes over low heat to soften the vegetables.  Add the white beans, low sodium vegetable stock, Italian seasoning blend, salt, and bring to a boil.
  • Once boiling, reduce heat to low. Simmer the soup for about 20 minutes until celery and zucchini are tender.
  • Add the lemon juice and baby spinach the cooked to the soup, and stir well to combine. Spinach will wilt into the soup in a few minutes.
  • Once ready to serve, drizzle the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and a sprinkle of fresh parmesan cheese on top for a velvety finish.
