Spring-vegetable minestrone is a light, veggie-packed version of an Italian classic. It’s great for when the days begin to warm, but the evenings are still chilly. This is my first course for Easter dinner. Read more There is a recipe for semmel on GR. Thought that would be nice and different. Or salted crackers from the King arthur flour site. From chatelaine.

- Meanwhile, prepare onion and carrot. Drain fat from pan, leaving about 1 tbsp.

- While pasta is cooking, drain and rinse beans.
- Stir into soup along with bok choy.
- Simmer until bok choy starts to wilt, 3 more min. Stir in dill.
- Ladle into bowls and enjoy with crusty bread or semmel.
