MINESTRONE SOUP RECIPE | easy vegetable soup

If you are looking for an easy, delicious minestrone soup recipe to fall in love with, this recipe is for you! This is a classic version of minestrone soup, packed with veggies like; carrots, onions, celery, garlic, cabbage, potato, zucchini and baby spinach.
Minestrone soup is a hearty vegetable soup that was traditionally made to use up leftover vegetables. It’s a very flexible soup that can be made with just about any vegetables you have on hand. It’s also a great way to enjoy some seasonal vegetables since you can adjust the ingredients based on what you have, what looks good or what’s in season.
My minestrone recipe is made with chicken broth (and love to top it with parmesan cheese), but you can easily make this a vegan or vegetarian minestrone soup by swapping in vegetable broth and skipping the parmesan.
And trust me, making your own minestrone soup is way better than buying it Olive Garden ;).
