Soup Ingredients

Crostini Ingredients

Method

Soup Directions

  1. 1

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until translucent.

  2. 2

    Add Garlic, Carrots, and Celery

    Stir in the minced garlic, diced carrots, and diced celery. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

  3. 3

    Combine Remaining Ingredients

    Pour in the vegetable broth and diced tomatoes. Add the bay leaf, salt, black pepper, and dried oregano. Stir well to combine.

  4. 4

    Simmer the Soup

    Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

  5. 5

    Add Spinach

    Remove the bay leaf and stir in the chopped spinach. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the spinach is wilted.

Crostini Directions

  1. 6

    Prepare the Baguette

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the baguette into 1/2 inch thick slices.

  2. 7

    Brush with Olive Oil

    Place the baguette slices on a baking sheet. Brush one side of each slice with olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt.

  3. 8

    Toast the Crostini

    Bake in the preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Remove from the oven.

  4. 9

    Rub with Garlic

    While the crostini are still warm, rub the halved garlic clove over the toasted side of each slice for added flavor.
