Difficulty: Easy
The minestrone soup I make is very similar to this recipe on Allrecipes. With the following exceptions:
- one medium onion
- chicken broth or granules in water, not just water
- large can of crushed tomatoes instead of sauce
- red wine is never optional
- add one can of Northern beans
- frozen green beans, not canned, and double the amount
- season with dried thyme, oregano & basil
- tri-color cheese tortellini instead of shell pasta
- & I don't spray anything with evoo, what's that all about anyway?
garnish with freshly grated parmigiano/reggiano & fresh basil
Leftover potential: This soup will hang in the fridge for a few days & should freeze well, although I never have. Just keep the pasta and the soup separate until ready to serve.
