Recipe: Minestrone Soup

8 Comments

Minestrone is glorified vegetable soup. It’s usually made with whatever is in season and often contains pasta or rice and always has beans in it. I’m not a really big of this soup in restaurants as it’s usually served very thin with a ton of pasta and not much in the way of vegetables and also usually has a beef base which I don’t like. I made mine with vegetable stock but feel free to make yours with chicken or beef if you have that instead. This recipe makes about 8 servings but could be easily scaled down.

A super simple way to make broccoli disappear in a matter of minutes. Creamy, rich, not all that good for you but delicious. I actually would use much less cheese and then taste and add as much as you need because I dumped it all in the first time and it was actually too cheesy I ended up putting in some stock to thin out the flavor.

There’s a bit of rumor and mystery that surround Chicken Tikka Masala. Where it started isn’t quite certain but it’s wildly regarded as delicious! Probably a food born from export back to England from India this unique dish  can be enjoyed by people who like the taste of savory curry without heat. There are dozens of versions of it but this one is one that very much suits my tastes.
