Ingredients
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons of Olive Oil
  • 1 medium Yellow Onion (diced)
  • 1 large Carrot (thinly sliced)
  • ½ of a Red Bell Pepper (seeded and diced)
  • ½ of a Green Bell Pepper (seeded and diced)
  • ½ cup White or Baby Bella Mushrooms (sliced)
  • 1 tablespoon Italian Dried Herbs
  • 1 pinch of Red Chili Flakes
  • 3 cloves of Garlic (minced)
  • 3 tablespoons of Tomato Paste ( I use the kind in a tube, so not to waste)
  • 5 cups of Low Sodium Vegetable Broth
  • 1 to 3 cups of Water (start with one cup and if your soup gets too hearty, then add more water or broth as you see fit)
  • 1 medium Zucchini (sliced)
  • 1 to 14.5.oz can of Crushed Tomatoes
  • ¼ teaspoon of Sugar (this helps with the acidity of the tomatoes)
  • 1 teaspoon of Sea Salt (or more if needed)
  • ¼ teaspoon of Ground Black Pepper
  • 8 ounces of dried Pasta ( I used Malfada Corta) - Campanelle Pasta is a good substitution. If you choose to use Lasagna Noodles, then I would recommend about 7 or 8 strips broken up
  • 1 to 2 handfuls of fresh leafy greens such as Spinach or Kale (roughly chopped)
  • 6 leaves of fresh Basil (roughly chopped) (optional)
  • subheading: Optional Toppings:
  • I like to add a dollop of of herby ricotta cheese to each bowl. Account for one tablespoon for each person that you’re serving. In a small bowl, put that many tablespoons of Ricotta cheese in, a good sprinkle of grated parmesan cheese, and some freshly chopped basil. Stir that all together and add a dollop to each bowl.
  • Additional Parmesan Cheese
