Whenever I crave a hearty vegetarian soup, minestrone is my go-to, and Edy Massih’s Moroccan Harissa Minestrone might single handedly get me through my first Maine winter!
This vibrant soup combines traditional Italian minestrone ingredients – onions, carrots, bell peppers, celery ,and tomatoes – with chickpeas and North African harissa (a spicy red pepper paste).
The fiery broth is ladled over pearled couscous and finished with fresh parsley and a bright splash of lime juice.
The steaming bowl of comfort food warmed me through and reminded me of a soup my Grandma Cole made every once in a while – minus the harissa
