This soup is just okay. I found it to be a bit bland. I would have liked it better with more vegetables and a stronger broth.

This minestrone soup was a hit with my family! The flavors were rich and the vegetables were perfectly cooked. I added some extra kale and sausage, and it turned out even better than I expected. Highly recommend!
