Leek, Rapini and Rice Soup

I made this soup last night for dinner because it was quick, easy and I really wanted to find a way to use these up!

I heated olive oil and butter in a pan until melted, added the leeks and some minced garlic until soft.  Then I added chopped rapini, rice, chicken broth, white wine, salt, pepper and lemon zest.  This was cooked until the rapini was wilted and the rice was cooked all the way through.

I really enjoyed this soup! I had two huge bowls of it. It was light and refreshing and if I hadn't had to share it with anyone, I probably would have finished off the whole pot!  It also took less than 20 minutes to make, which was another huge bonus.
