Quick Minestrone Soup

 olive oil
2-3 carrots chopped
2 stalks celery chopped
1 onion chopped
3 cloves garlic minced
small cooked pasta of your choice in a bit of evoo to prevent sticking(i used brown rice pasta)
2 14oz cans of fire roasted tomatoes pulsed in a blender til smooth(i used one can that had chilis for spice)
1 quart box of vege or chicken broth
1 can kidney beans drained rinsed
1 can pinto beans drained rinsed (i just used 1/2 can but i like beans so should have used 2)
dry or fresh parsley and basil
salt and pepper to taste

Saute veggies till cooked. Add all ingredients except pasta and cook 20 mins. Add pasta when your going to serve or once soup is cooled and your going to pack in the fridge. (I dont like when pasta turns to mush or soaks up all the broth)
The key to this soup is the fire roasted tomatoes!!!
