  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 tsp. dried oregano
  • 1 tsp. dried marjoram
  • 1 tsp. paprika

  • 2 x (13.5 oz.) can crushed tomatoes
  • 4 cups gluten free chicken broth
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • 2 celery sticks, diced
  • 2 x (13.5 oz.) can cannellini beans, rinse and drain

  • 1 cup sliced kale or chard, stems removed
  • ½ cup gluten free elbow pasta
  • 1 small zucchini, roughly chopped into small pieces
  • ½ cup chopped basil
  • ½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

    • Instructions
