Sweet Potato Minestrone

I found this recipe at an online group.


Sweet Potato Minestrone

10 cups chopped, cored peeled tomatoes (I use ones that I have frozen from the garden)

6   cups cubed, peeled sweet potatoes (about 1.5 lbs)
4   cups diced carrots (about 1 lb)
4   cups green beans (2lbs frozen)
3   cups diced celery (6 ribs)
4   cups diced onion (3 medium / large)
1   pint tomato juice (Ok to replace with canned tomato sauce)
4   cups water
1   Tbsp. dry minced garlic
2   Tbsp. Italian seasoning
2   Tbsp. canning salt
1/4 tsp. ground black pepper

Combine all in a large stock pot. Bring up to a boil and simmer for 20-30 minutes. Skim foam if necessary. Ladle into hot, sterilized jars leaving 1" headspace. Process at 10/11# pressure (or as adjusted for your altitude) for 90 minutes.

Makes 7 quarts
