Soup

So, a few months ago, in the summer actually, I made this soup for my old blog.  I am putting it on here now.  I don't remember what it's called, but it was good!

To begin, you need two leeks, 2 stalks of celery, oregano, garlic, salt, and pepper.

Put some olive oil in a pan with some pepper, salt, and garlic.  Let this saute' for a  minute or so.

Next, chop off the ends of the leeks.  Then chop it up into pieces and put into your pan.

Do the same with the celery and about 1/4 of a white or yellow onion.  Saute' until tender.

While the vegetables are slowly sauteing, start working on the green beans.  Buy fresh green beans and snap off the ends.

Snap the beans into smaller pieces and put them in your colander.

Go check on your vegetables, and they may have shrunk an incredible amount.

Next, add vegetable broth and bring to a simmer.

Once simmering, add small shell pasta.  As much or as little as you want.

After you add the pasta, go back to your green beans.  Finish snapping them and rinse them.

Once pasta is almost tender, add the green beans.

Next, add Oregano.

Let it cook until the pasta has absorbed a good amount of the liquid.  This may have happened earlier, so don't worry!

Serve with freshly grated parmesan or romano cheese.
