LittleCajunGirl.com: Pasta-less Minestrone Soup

Hi, friends! Sorry that I’ve been AWOL. Settling into our new town, temporary home, and new job. I wasn’t able to take photos of everything with step by step instructions, but I will make it and repeat in the future! Until then, here’s at least a photo (pre-cooked) and the recipe! Enjoy! And I will get back on the ball properly really soon! Appreciate the patience!!!!!

32 oz vegetable broth
32 oz beef broth
2 cans stewed tomatoes
1 can Rotel
1 can black beans
1 can Great Northern beans
5 oz container of mixed spinach, mizuna, chard, and kale (or whatever mix you want…this is what I used….

1/2 package (~5 oz.) carrot matchsticks
3 small zucchini cut into half circles
2 small yellow squash cut into half circles
1 medium onion, sautéed and lightly browned
1 lb ground Italian sausage, cooked
1/2 tsp thyme
1/2 tsp Italian seasoning

Throw it all in a crockpot on high until all veggies are cooked. Top with a little Parmesan to serve.
