This is a delicious recipe that is mainly vegetables. I make it when I have pesto around & the weather is turning cold.
- Saute few cloves garlic & some leeks, shallots or white onion (whatever you have on tap) on med/low heat for about 3-5 minutes till translucent
- Add diced carrot (2-3 or two handfuls baby carrots), 2-3 stalks celery, 1-2 small/med zucchini, 1 yellow squash - stir for about 2-3 minutes
- Add 1 box/large can - about 5-6 cups veggie or chicken stock, a few heirloom or really ripe tomatoes OR a 16oz can of diced tomatoes
- Add handful orzo (or alphabet pasta for kids)
- Bring to a boil
- Lower heat simmer for 20-30 minutes
- Right at end add 3/4 container of baby spinach roughly chopped + 2-3Tbsp pesto, S&P
- Serve with grated Parmesan cheese
