Hearty Minestrone image

This is a great vegetarian meal in itself. Add a panini or grilled cheese to the side for those two-handed eaters in your house. Small shaped pasta such as orzo or ditalini work best, but you can experiment with others. I find the flavors meld overnight and even tastes better as left-overs.

This soup is so versatile. You can add or remove any vegetables you like. I also like to add a little bit of red pepper flakes for some spice.
