Soup's On!

In honor of Kris' memorial service tomorrow, tonight's dinner was "Greek Something or Other Soup," which turned out to be one food she would actually EAT. :o) It was passed along to me by my mom, and to her by my Aunt Barbara. It makes a lovely red and green colored soup, perfect for Christmas. Enjoy! (Ooh, and don't skip the feta. It's my favorite part.)


In large pot, saute lightly in olive oil:
2 stalks celery, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped

Add:
4-6 cu. chicken or vegetable stock
1/2 cu. arborio rice
6 cu. baby leaf spinach
1 can Great Northern Beans, rinsed and drained
1 can diced tomatoes, drained
1 zucchini, chopped
1 yellow squash, chopped
Fresh thyme to taste

Heat soup on medium heat for 20-30 minutes to cook rice and veggies.
Serve with crumbled feta on top.
