I LOVE MINESTRONE SOUP! Every time I eat it, I think "is the really vegetarian?" It's so good. It tastes like there's peperoni in it. It's a little tiny miracle in a bowl.
I never made it on my own-usually eat it at a restaurant or from a can, but I ventured into the world of edible alchemy and came out with money saving kettle of yumminess that will last for weeks.
My recipe created so much soup that I'll bring it to visit family tomorrow, have some for lunch at work on Monday and freeze enough for another dinner.
Yeah Baby!
It's crazy easy and nutritious.
In this case I'm not even sharing the family's vote because sometimes Mama's vote is the only vote needed.
I served this with a beautiful loaf of sour dough bread.
