Minestrone image

Amazing minestrone! Vegetable broth can be used instead of chicken broth to make this dish vegetarian. This soup can be prepared ahead of time and frozen in air tight containers for up to 2 or 3 months. To prepare from frozen, thaw soup and pour into pot. Bring just to boil. Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I had some carrots, celery, and onions that were about to go bad, so I threw them in the soup. It turned out great! The soup is flavorful and healthy.
