Instructies

Let's go girls:

1. Set two pots of water to boil while you chop onions, celery, leeks into bite sized pieces.

2. Add olive oil to a large pot and heat over medium, add your onions and cook for 5 minutes.

3. Add celery and leek, cook for 10-15 mins until softened.

4. Meanwhile, cook your pasta about half the time suggested and drain.

5. Add your spinach and basil to your other pot of boiling water for 1 minute, drain and add to an ice bath (water & ice)

6. Add your stock and bay leaf.

7. Once almost boiling, add peas and beans, salt and pepper. Add half of your lemon juice - taste, and add more to your liking (I use all bc I like it lemon-y).

8. Add your very al dente pasta (you could cook your pasta in the soup but I prefer not to).

9. Blend your spinach and basil with 1/4 cup of water.

10. Add to soup and season to taste one last time.

11. Serve topped with an olive oil drizzle drizzle, your grated cheese, and some chilli flakes!
