Spent a long day at uni today, after not being able to come up with a decent excuse, I had to do my shift as a librarian this morning. This was not ideal as I bruised my bum climbing on lion statues on Friday night and the chairs in the library do not come equipped with cushions. This dinner took less than half an hour to make so perfect for a stressful day being surrounded by books that I'm never going to read.
I made enough for about 8 but soup freezes well so it will keep.
Ingredients:
2 Red Peppers (Chopped)
2 Large Courgettes (Diced)
1 Pack Mini Pasta (Still haven't worked out what they are called)
3 Jars Passata
150ml Water
1 Onion (Diced)
Handful Fresh Basil
Tbsp Tomato Purée
Salt & Pepper
Soften the onions, pepper and courgettes in a little oil. Add the water, passata and tomato purée and simmer for a few minutes. Add the cute pasta and a pinch of salt and pepper and simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in the fresh basil and serve.
Serve with crusty bread and butter and that's it. Easy peasy.
Emily and I had ours early as we were too hungry to wait for the girls to get back from their stalking/ italian class (they followed a strange man from italian and ended up going the wrong way). I now have to read a book about Venetian renaissance art before tomorrow, not expecting my evening to be much fun - also I watched Downton Abbey and I'm feeling a little depressed, I won't give away any spoilers though.
Also saw a really cute puppy on my walk to the shop to buy some crisps, it looked like a husky crossed with a tiger - and it was chasing pigeons! CUTE.
