Minestrone Soup
(my favorite recipe yet for this soup)
3 Tbls butter
1 onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, chopped
3 carrots, peeled and diced
3 stalks celery, diced
1 yellows squash, halved and sliced
1 Zucchini, halved and sliced
1 lb Italian sausage (I would switch it for homemade beef sausage)
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried basil
salt and pepper to taste
6 c stock (chicken, beef, or a combination)
1/2 lb favorite pasta shape
3 or 4 tomatoes, diced
In a soup pot, brown the sausage and drain the excess grease from cooked sausage. Add the butter and saute onion, carrots, celery and garlic. Add the squash and zucchini, seasoning with oregano, basil, salt and pepper. Add the tomatoes and the stock. Bring to a boil. Add the pasta and simmer until pasta is cooked through. Serve with crusty bread and grated cheese.
