2 garlic cloves minced
2 zucchini sliced
1 can quartered artickote hearts drained

Directions :
In a large pan, sauté leek in oil 5 minutes. Add garlic, artickotes, zucchini and cook about 10 minutes. Add chicken broth, cover and cook in low heat about 15 minutes more. Add salt and pepper if needed. Then increase heat to medium, add pasta and cook for 5 minutes.
Ladle the soup into plates (or bowls) and top with thyme and parmesan.
