Ingredients:

Serving

3 tbsp olive oil
3 leeks, white and light green parts, rinsed and chopped
1 pinch saffron thread
3 carrots, diced
3 potatoes, chopped
3 turnips, peeled and diced
3 zucchini, sliced into 1/2 inch rounds (or other summer squash)
3/4 lb green beans, trimmed and cut into 1-inch lengths
2 tomatoes, peeled, seeded and diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
salt
pepper
2 quarts vegetable broth
1 cup pasta
3 cups basil leaves, stemmed
1 garlic clove, peeled
3 tbsp pine nuts
1/2 cup parmigiano-reggiano cheese, grated
2 tbsp parmigiano-reggiano cheese, grated
1/2 cup olive oil

Directions:

In a large soup pot over medium heat, add the oil.
Stir in leeks and saffron and cook for 10 minutes or until leeks are translucent.
Stir in remaining vegetables (carrots - garlic) - include any juice from the tomatoes and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Cook for 5 more minutes.
Stir in broth/stock and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to a simmer and cook for 30 more minutes.
While the soup is simmering cook pasta according to package directions, drain and rinse and set aside.
Meanwhile prepare the pesto: drop basil in a pot of boiling water for a second or so, drain, rinse and pat dry. Using a food processor (you can also do this by hand using a mortar and pestle if desired) process the garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt and pine nuts until chopped - add in the basil and olive oil and puree until smooth. Add cheeses and process until combined.
Stir pasta into soup and ladel soup into bowls , topped with a spoonful of pesto.
