[recipe] Vegetable Garbanzo and Tortellini Soup

[Guest guest]

This is what i made for dinner last night.

It was sort of a throw together soup from

items i had in my pantry.

 

Vegetable Garbanzo and Tortellini Soup

 

1 medium onion, chopped

3 celery ribs. chopped

2 cups shredded carrots (about 3 large)

1 Tbs. olive oil

2 medium zucchini, chopped

1 cup cut fresh or frozen green beans

2 plum tomatoes, chopped

4 garlic cloves, minced

4 cups vegetable broth

1 can (14.5 oz.) garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained

Cajun seasoning to taste

3 cups frozen cheese tortellini

Salt & pepper to taste

 

In a skillet over medium-high heat, saute the

onion, celery and carrots in the olive oil just

until the onions begin to soften. Transfer this

mixture to the crockpot and add the next seven

ingredients; cook in crockpot on low for 4 to 5 hours.

Place the tortellini in a colander and rinse in warm

water to thaw. Add them to the crockpot an hour

before you are planning to serve the soup.

Adjust the seasoning to taste by adding the salt,

pepper and any fresh herbs you prefer.

Yield: 5 to 6 servings
