  1. f you have a food processor or hand-held mixer then you only need to roughly chop your onions, garlic and celery. If not then chop very finely. Add oil to a large sauce pan along with veggies, bay leaves and spices. Saute gently until tender. Add tomatoes, tomato paste and stock. Simmer with cover on pot for at least 1 hr (I did 2 hrs). At the end stir in the pesto and lemon juice and let rest. Put bread cubes onto a baking pan, spray with Pam and sprinkle with parmesan and parsley. Lightly toast in the over. Garnish soup with croutons.
