Recipe(tried): Tuscan bean Soup and Fresh Pineapple Parfait
MenusLeftovers, everybody has some in their fridge...sometimes you can eat the same meal all over again like at Thanksgiving or you can turn those leftovers into something completely different than what you had. I made Mediterranean Pot Roast a few days back and have enough leftover to be turned into this delicious Tuscan Bean Soup. I make it just by adding water and some other savory ingredients like tomatoes, beans and an assortment of frozen vegetables. I call it Tuscan Bean Soup because of the addition of cannelini beans and elbow macaroni. Its rustic, quick and very soul satisfying! For a refreshing dessert, I will serve Fresh Pineapple Parfait...I love serving this dessert in a wine goblet and even though it is made with yogurt, it is a decadent dessert reminiscent of Trifle!
Enjoy!

This is like a rustic bean and vegetable soup that you might enjoy if you stopped for a lunch at a Trattoria in Tuscany, very satisfying and great with Italian bread and butter!
