Today I am making up my own type of soup which I called Artisan Lettuce, Bean and Pasta Soup.

Artisan Lettuce comes in a pack of beautiful petite varieties of whole head red and green Tango, Oak and Gem Artisan Lettuce.

Great for salads, sandwiches, wraps and more. Make your dish a masterpiece which I am using this lettuce in my soup.

Dice tiny 1/2 red pepper, 1 peeled apple, 2 sticks of celery 1/2 onion. Place in a soup stock pot with 2 tablespoons of olive oil then lightly saute.

Add 6-7 cups of water and chop up 3 hands full of Artisan Lettuce add to the pot with 1 table spoon of minced garlic (store made is what I use)  and bring to a boil. Then add 1 cup of Ditalini macaroni into the pot and lower to a simmer (keep on stirring the macaroni/pasta until tender)

Add 1 can of white kidney cannellini beans do not drain and 1 small can of tomato sauce.
You can use any beans of your choice and any tomato sauce, paste, pasta sauce, diced tomatoes.

Spices, sprinkle parsley, dill, onion salt, table or sea salt and Mrs. Dash. Add  two or three packs of Goya pollo chicken seasoning.

You can be creative and add anything you like with the spices and beans. Plus you can add spinach or any other type of vegetable you like into your soup.

My kids like to sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top of their soup and if you prefer it a little hot and spicy add a little crushed red pepper spice to your bowl. Remember everything you make is up to your taste.

Be Creative
Enjoy
