OLIVE GARDEN MINESTRONE SOUP
Posted in response to a request. This is a wonderfully hearty soup that is pretty close to Olive Garden's. We used to go there several times a month when I lived close and get the soup and bread sticks. Mmmmmm

- About 20 minutes before serving time add the macaroni and more water if needed.
- Ladle into bowls and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
