Basil Vegetable Soup

• 15.5 ounces can cannelloni beans or white beans
• 3 carrots, peeled and chopped into thin rounds
• 3 small zucchinis, halved and sliced
• 3 cloves garlic, minced

• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 quarts vegetable broth or chicken broth
• 1 cup dry vermicelli (rice noodles)
• 1/2 cup fresh basil, tightly packed
• salt and pepper
• grated parmesan cheese

1. Heat a large soup pot over medium heat. Add a little of the liquid from the can of beans. Add sliced carrots and zucchini, saute for 1 minute.
2. Add beans, garlic, frozen beans, tomato, and salt. Saute one minute more.
3. Add broth and bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer, covered, until vegetables are tender.
4. Check seasoning and correct if necessary. Add vermicelli and simmer until just barely tender. Meanwhile, chop basil finely. When vermicelli is tender, remove soup from heat and add basil.
