soup of necessity

along the same lines as my previous post on bad weather brownies, the damp chilly weather also brought on a hankering for soup, so i threw this together on the fly tonight using ingredients i had on hand.

Veggie Noodle Soup

3 onions
4 celery ribs
3 handfuls of baby cut carrots
4 medium potatoes
6 cups chicken stock
~1 cup rotini

i chopped the onions, celery and carrots and sauteed them in olive oil til soft and translucent. seasoned with salt, pepper, thyme and some parsley. added the chicken stock. peeled and cubed the potatoes, then added those, brought up to a slow boil and simmered til almost tender. added the pasta and boiled gently til tender, adding small amounts of water as needed. adjusted seasoning, then ate hot with slices of warm bread. yum!!
