My boss, who is an excellent cook, gave this recipe to me about 10 years ago. It's terrific and very EASY-A must try! It's also really good the next day cold! I believe that it is also works for the SB Diet. Ingredients:
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil |
1 large onion, thinly sliced |
5 garlic cloves, minced |
2 cups celery, chopped |
1/3 cup carrot, finely chopped |
1 (24 ounce) can diced and peeled tomatoes |
2 (12 ounce) cans beef broth |
2 teaspoons dry basil |
1 teaspoon dried thyme |
4 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped |
1/2 teaspoon dry crushed red pepper |
Directions:
1. Heat oil in pot large enough to hold all ingredients. 2. Add onion and garlic and sauté until onion is translucent (approx 7 minutes). 3. Add celery and carrots, sauté 5 minutes. 4. Add tomatoes, beef broth, basil, thyme, parsley, and red pepper and bring to a boil. 5. Cover when at a boil and lower heat and simmer until it thickens for approx 45 minutes. 6. You can add additional remaining chopped parsley or grated parmesan cheese on top when serving. |
