Minestrone Di Castagne e Fagioli Secchi

This recipe makes 6 servings and the only points are 1o for half cup of arborio rice! So each hearty serving is just two points on Weight Watchers

Soup’s on! Minestrone Di Castagne e Fagioli Secchi. This one is a nice, rustic combination of white beans, chestnuts and arborio rice. I sometimes add some pancetta but we’re keeping this version vegetarian. Comes together quickly and is very hearty.

1 can white beans, drained and rinsed
8 ounces of pre-cooked chestnuts, chopped (most stores have them in bags near the produce section)
1 large carrot, roughly chopped
1 rib celery, roughly chopped
1/2 yellow onion, roughly diced
1/2 cup Arborio rice
5 cups vegetable stock
Salt and pepper to taste

Saute the carrot, celery and onion in a drizzle of olive oil until the veggies start to soften. Add in the beans, chestnuts, rice and stock, and salt and pepper to taste. If you have a small parmesan rind hanging around, throw that in too! Stir well, and let come to a boil. Then reduce heat and cover, letting cook for about 20 minutes until rice softens. You may need to add a little bit more stock, just keep an eye on it.
