“I cook this minestrone recipe (Jamie Oliver) nearly every weekend, as it uses loads of the veg in the Oak tree veg box, and is really tasty. I miss out the dried beans bit (the first paragraph of the recipe) and just cut up some of the runner beans and chuck them in with the tomatoes instead. I also use the fresh tomatoes from the farm instead of the tinned ones and the chard instead of spinach. I put a good heaped tablespoon of pesto in at the end too. It works with pretty much whatever you happen to have in your fridge.” (Helen)
