There are 3 common vegetables available in convenience stores and I decided to combine them all into a Minestrone Soup. As far as I can see, a minestrone soup is pretty much a vegetable soup usually containing some kind of bean, a bunch of other vegetables and a small noodle of some kind. The base is usually tomato, although, I have seen minestrone done in a clear broth as well. The result was absolutely delicious-I kid you not, and I dont usually get excited about soup.
Ingredients: this recipe yields 6-8 nice size bowls,freeze leftovers if there are any, too good to waste!!
