In a soup pot, pour olive oil and place the pot on medium heat on the stove.

Add the meat with the wine and cook until the liquid evaporates. Stir often.

Add the chopped carrots, garlic, celery, onion and parsley root.

Stir to combine all ingredients. Cook until vegetables are translucent.

Add the greens and stir.

Add tomatoes. Stir.

Reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally until zucchini and potatoes are soft, for about 30 minutes.

How to make the bread croutons:

Choose leftover bread.

Preheat oven to 350°.

Toast in the oven, tossing occasionally, until golden brown and crunchy, 15–18 minutes. Let croutons cool then use.
