Recipe - Minestrone Soup (Parve)

2 Spanish onions
5 Cloves fresh garlic
3 Stalks celery
3 lg Carrots
1 Parsnip
1 small Eggplant
1 lg Zuccini
One half pound Fresh green beans
One fourth bn Fresh cilantro or flat
parsley
1 cn Kidney beans; ( can be
omitted)
1 Box frozen corn
1 cn (28 oz) crushed tomatoes
2 cn (8 oz) tomato sauce
4 ounce Small pasta (like a;b,c,)
cooked and drained

cut all fresh vegetables into bite size or smaller pieces, green beans into
1" pieces. In large pot, saute onion and garlic, till soft. Add rest of
fresh vegetables.Add tomato sauce, crushed tomatoes,and cover with
water.Simmer till tender,then add pasta and corn. Season with salt,
pepper,oregano,basil, italian seasoning and garlic powder to taste.

I use a 12 quart stock pot, and freeze some for another day. I have found
that most tomato based soups and sauces taste even better when reheated
another day. Enjoy!
