What’s In This Low Salt Minestrone Soup Recipe?

  • Tomatoes, Carrots, Celery, Parsley
  • Bowtie, or Farfalle Pasta – a great pasta salad noodle!
  • Garlic
  • No-Salt Diced Tomatoes
  • Italian Seasoning Blend: usually has thyme, basil, rosemary, parsley, etc. I love a bright and flavorful Italian season mix which brings this amazing dish to life.
  • No Salt Vegetable Stock or Bouillon
  • No Salt Added Kidney Beans: Canned or boxed kidney beans are a really fantastic alternative to canned beans. I only use no salt or low sodium beans which gives this dish a really great flavor without the salt.

How Do I Make This Dairy Free Creamy Minestrone Recipe?

  1. Cook bowtie farfalle pasta according to package instructions.  Drain and set pasta aside.
  2. In a large soup pot, heat the olive oil over low heat. Add the onion and celery and sauté on low for 4 or 5 minutes until vegetables begin to soften.
  3. Add the carrots, celery, diced tomatoes with juice, Italian seasoning, salt, and no-salt-added vegetable stock and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes until carrots and celery are cooked through.
  4. Add the kidney beans and parsley to the soup.  Cook for an additional 10 minutes.
  5. When ready to serve, I like to place a scoop (about 1/2 cup) of the cooked pasta in a bowl, and ladle the hot broth over the top when serving.
