This recipe is so easy, I am sure you will just love it! And you can make the vegetables stock ahead of time – even freeze it for future easy meals. I have tried this with other pastas and it makes a different soup each time.

2 cups of fresh spinach, coarsely chopped

Vegetable stock:

2 each, carrots and ribs celery, chopped

2 onions, chopped

1 plum tomato

3 cloves of garlic, halved

1 package of dried mixed mushrooms

¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper
