Joining Mary at the Little Red House for another fun Mosaic Monday! Stop by to see all the Mosaics this week! I made this one at Big Huge Labs using the Framer, then clicking on Canvas Panels!
Been a very long, but fun weekend. Back to work in the morning.
Can you believe tonight I'm speechless? Just a quick and spicy post!
This is a quick recipe, perfect for any time! Add a salad. A sandwich. Whatever you like. Doesn't get any better or any easier!
Quick and Spicy Tomato Soup
Source: Everyday Italian – Giada DeLaurentiis
Printable Recipe
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 carrots, peeled and chopped (I used bagged, shredded carrots)
1 small onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 (26-ounce) jar marinara sauce
2 (14-ounce) cans chicken broth (I use the boxed broth)
1 (15-ounce) can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed (chick peas are also good in this!)
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 cup small pasta (I used ditalini)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Garnish with fresh basil and croutons
Warm the olive oil in a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Add the carrots, onion, and garlic and saute until soft, about 2-3 minutes. Add the jar of marinara sauce, chicken broth, cannellini beans, red pepper flakes, pasta, salt and pepper. Simmer for 15 minutes. Ladle into bowls and serve.
Oh my, now this looks good! I've been looking for a way to spice up some tomato soup, and this looks like it will be perfect! I hope your Thanksgiving was wonderful! Happy week1...Debbie

Love all the recipes you share.
