מרק ירקות עם פריקי מתכון

Vegetable Soup With Freekeh

The traditional Minestrone gets a touch of fusion when Freekeh replaces white beans. Since I wanted to omit the acidity of the tomato paste, I replaced it with smoked paprika; The result is a hearty and delicious soup. Serve with tiny pasta and croutons. Perfect for cold days but not only 🍲😋❣️
