Add a photoDachary Carey of The Peasant Chef, asked me if I would be interested in a guest post discussing healthy food, organic and local raised products and why I decided to be a chef. I thought that Peasant Chef was really in line with my values and beliefs and without hesitation accepted the invitation. I wanted to feature a traditional and very healthy dish that my mom used to make with our garden vegetables and Minestrone came to my mind. It’s a very hearty soup, with so many different types of vegetables and vitamins so a gold mine in a bowl.
Ingredientes

- 2 carrots, diced
- 1 leek, chopped
- 1 cup green chards, chopped
- 2 cups green beens, cut in 1 inch pieces
- 1 cup fresh peas (or frozen)
- 1 zucchini, diced
- 2 celeri sticks, diced
- 1 shallot, finely diced
- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- 2 large ripe tomatoes, peeled and seedless
- 1/2 cup dry cannellini beans (or 1 cup can organic cannellini beans)
- 2 tbs olive oil
- 1 tbs basil, chopped
- 2/3 cup Ditalini pasta (optional)

Direcciones
