Ingredients
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 small onion (finely diced)
2 ribs celery (sliced)
3 large carrots (peeled and finely chopped)
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 tablespoon minced garlic (2 large cloves)
1½ teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
¼ teaspoon black pepper
⅛ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 cups fresh spinach (roughly chopped)
4 cups low sodium chicken broth (or vegetable broth)
28 oz canned diced tomatoes (798 ml) no salt added
1 cup canned red kidney beans* (rinsed) 8 oz
1 cup canned white kidney beans* (rinsed) 8 oz
1 cups small uncooked pasta (I used medium shells)
Parmesan for serving
Instructions
In a large pot cook and stir the oil, carrots, celery and onion over medium-high heat until the onion has softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the salt, garlic, parsley, oregano, basil, and pepper and cook 1 minute.
Add the broth, tomatoes, and beans. Cover and simmer over medium heat for about 10 minutes or until carrots are crisp-tender.
Stir in pasta, cover and simmer for 10 minutes or until pasta reaches desired tenderness, stirring often.
Stir in spinach and serve with shredded Parmesan cheese as desired.

made this 6 or 7 times so far, with veggie broth. it's a great recipe! pro tip: add a few tbsp of red pasta sauce with the tomato paste, it gives extra flavour, and go crazy with the seasoning. i also add parmesan on top. its so good

If you are gluten intolerant or something like that, you can replace the pasta with broccoli and/or green olives.

[israelsifuentes]

This looks really good but how long did you leave it cooking on the stove for?? Was it a low, medium, or high heat? I'm just learning to make stuff so I need major hand holding.

Would adding some sausage to this be good???
