Recipe:
- 1 carrot, diced
- 1 celery stalk, diced
- 4 cloves garlic, diced
- 1/2 onion, diced
- 1 cup diced sweet potato
- 1 handful of baby spinach
- 1 handful of egg noodles
- 4 cups vegetable stock
- 1 tsp oregano
Saute the carrots, celery, and onion until softened, 5-7 minutes. Add the garlic for a minute at the end. Add the stock and bring to a boil. Add the sweet potato, oregano, and any other seasonings you want. (I did garlic granules and a little red pepper). Boil for about 5 minutes, until the potato is nearly done. Add the egg noodles for a few more minutes. Ideally the egg noodles get done right as the sweet potato is getting done. Turn off the heat and throw in the spinach and stir it in until it’s wilted.
Time to table: 20 minutes
Modifications: This is an original, but very versatile, you can add any vegetables you have on hand, as well as shredded chicken or pork.
