Soup with Tubetti and Zucchini

Soup with tubetti and zucchini.

Traditional recipe and with the Bimby. Vegetarian/vegan cuisine.

Excellent both hot and warm, that’s why we make it even in spring despite being a soup.

Ideal for all ages and the whole family, it can be enhanced with many more ingredients.

Today I present the basic recipe, but you can enrich it with the addition of bacon during the sautéing or minced meat, while to enhance the creaminess you can add more parmesan or spreadable cheese. In short, you can satisfy all tastes.

I know something about having grandkids; the girl wants it dietetic, while the boys and I like it rich and nutritious, lucky them.
