Soup au pistou. Mediterranean Vegetable Soup
(Similar to Ribollita Soup)
5 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, chopped
1 carrot, chopped
1 celery stalk, chopped
1 small fennel bulb, trimmed and chopped
1 tablespoon minced garlic
Salt and ground black pepper (Optional: cayenne pepper)
2 small zucchinis, sliced
1 15-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes
4 cups vegetable stock or water
2 cups cooked or canned cannellini beans
2 Tbsp pesto
-1 pound chopped spinach, kale or escarole (sauté before serving)
-4 large, thick slices whole-grain bread, toasted
Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion, carrot, celery fennel and garlic; sprinkle with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are soft, about 10 minutes.
Drain the beans; if they’re canned, rinse them as well. Add them and the zucchinis to the pot along with tomatoes and their juices and stock, pesto, rosemary and thyme.
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat so the soup bubbles steadily; cover and cook, stirring once or twice, 15 to 20 minutes.
Before serving, sauté spinach, or kale, or escarole, in olive oil .

Have you ever noticed how a bouquet of tulips resembles a nest full of tiny birds beakes waiting to be fed? No, but I do :-)
Happy Floral Friday all!!
He is deciding what to have, the choice is..... Diced Peanuts*, Sunflower Seeds, Crunchy Peanut Butter or Suet Pellets.
* Young chicks can choke on whole Peanuts so I spend 15 minutes chopping them up using my Wife's best cleaver, please don't tell her.
Sometimes meals are just too much work. I think maybe I should eat out all the time.
Happy Macro Mondays
