6 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
---The First 9 Ingredients---
3 tablespoons Oil
3 slices Bacon, Chopped
1 medium Onion, Chopped
1 Stalk Celery, Chopped
1 medium Tomato, Chopped
½ Head Cabbage, Shredded
2 Cloves Garlic, Chopped
1 pinch Chili Pepper
1 pinch Dried Basil -Remaining Ingredients---
1 quart Chicken Stock
6 ounces Pasta, Uncooked Stivaletti
Salt And Pepper
1 tablespoon Fresh Parsley, Chopped
1 tablespoon Parmesan Cheese, Grated
Croutons

Directions

Place the first 9 ingredients in a soup pot and saute for 10 minutes. Add the chicken stock and seasonings and bring to a boil. Meanwhile, cook the pasta in another pot, drain and rinse. Add to the soup and cook for another 5 minutes. Adjust the seasonings and serve with grated cheese, parsley and croutons on top.

* Savoy cabbage will produce a milder taste than regular cabbage.

The longer the pasta is in the soup the more liquid it will soak up and the thicker, and less brothy, it will be.
