translucent. Add celery, zucchini, garlic, pepper, Lite Salt, basil and
marjoram. Continue to saute until tender. Add to beans and vegetable
mixture. Add parsley and tomato sauce. Cook 20 minutes. Add more water if
too thick. Add spaghetti and cook for 10 additional minutes.
NOTES : Sometimes I add fresh tomatoes instead of the canned tomatoes.
Also, I use my own chicken stock.
