This makes a change use Turkey breast or if can find it many supermarkets.

Do not sell it Thigh joint .

Cheap budget eat.

INGREDIENTS

Turkey breast diced or steaks diced.

Soffrito mix.

Add in Courgettes used one small diced cored.

Tin of Potatoes drained

see notes.

Passata jar 690g

Tins mixed pulses

see notes.

Tomato puree Tomato ketchup one tablespoon each.

Spaghetti broken up

see notes.

NOTES

I use tin potatoes as they already cooked and ready to use.

Many communities of the Med use tinned products vegetables. Peppers, Potatoes, Peas, Beans.

The French famed for tinned Mushrooms and Peas. Petit Pois.

Spian used a lot of tinned products so does Italy in jars often antipasti useful.

No chopping look at your supermarkets websites.

Timesavers.

Mixed Pulses please if you can buy Organic often a mix of Cannellini Beans Chickpeas Haricot and some others.

Stand by essential especially doing soups.

Spaghetti useful broken up tea towel wrapped in break snap and then add no water add to the dish, often we see this in tins.

Italians sometime use this a breakfast dish or brunch left over Spaghetti.

In a home made tomato sauce or any left the last meal.

With Eggs scrambled my Italian friends used to do this, if a cold day or just to get rid of Pasta.

There are specific pasta for Minestrone if you can find them but Spaghetti be fine.

METHOD

Add everything to a slow cooker and switch on low three hours plus.

You could make the soup base seperate.

Soffrito, vegetables and Passata beans and have that in a bowl. Diced Turkey to add mixed in.

Afterthe last hour or so add Spaghetti broken up and Mixed beans.

On again a futher hour till Spaghetti has enlarged in the Soup. Taste seasonings.

This can be frozen, use a tub, zip bags or soup sauce bags.

Labelled.

Thank you all for reading.
