Kit's Minestrone step by step

Saute onions and carrots in olive oil until soft. Add garlic. Saute for a minute or 2. Add zucchini, tomatoes, beans, pasta, salt, and broth. Simmer for 20-30 minutes..
Add spinach and pesto. Cook until spinach is wilted and flavors combined. Adjust seasoning, if needed..
Serve with crusty bread and sprinkle with parmesan cheese..
Variations: depending on your preferences, peas, potatoes, celery, or green beans can be added. Often I add a healthy handful of chopped parsley if I don't have spinach on hand. If you have fresh basil, this can be substituted for pesto. Other traditional italian greens like escarole or arugula can be added instead of spinach. It is also traditional to add a parmesan cheese rind to the pot early in the cooking process for flavor..
