Instructions

1. 1. In a large stock pot & heat 1 Tbsp EVOO on medium high heat. Wet your finger with water & flick the water droplets into the pot to see if it sizzles. Sautée the chopped onions & garlic until onions have browned.
2. 2. Add tomatoes, celery, carrots, mushrooms, beans, string beans, radish, & artichoke hearts to the pot. Cook the vegetables for about 10 minutes or until the celery has softened, stirring occasionally & adding the remaining EVOO.
3. 3. When the vegetables have all softened, add the tomato paste, pinch of pepper (or paprika if you’re craving heat), & the vegetable broth. Cook until everything is combined & the tomato paste has dissolved completely.
4. 4. Give the alphabet pasta a quick rinse & toss them into the soup when the soup comes to a boil. Add the kale & cook until the pasta has softened. This should be roughly 10 minutes. You don’t want it to be mushy, so make sure you remove the soup from heat & serve immediately. Top with parsley & a bit of EVOO!
