Ingredients
- Vegetable Stock: 700ml hot vegetable stock
- Pasta: 140g cooked pasta (spaghetti works well, chopped into small pieces)

- Vegetable: 200g mixed green vegetable (we used asparagus, broad beans and spring onions)
- Butter Bean: 215g can butter beans, rinsed and drained
Directions
- Place the green vegetables in a medium-size saucepan, then pour over the stock. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the vegetables are cooked through, about 3 mins.
