    Minestrone Soup is the mixture of a soup and a meal. Filled with vegetables, rice or pasta and topped with parmesan cheese, it is the best way to enjoy a cold, wintery day!
    Minestrone Soup...healthy, delicious and easy to make
    Do you need a warm, chunky soup to get you through the cold weather?
    Maybe you want a delicious meal for your romantic Italian night in.
    I have the perfect soup for you - Minestrone Soup!
     This is a easy, healthy and delicious recipe that while it is bubbling away on the stove top, fills your home with delicious, comforting aromas!
    The best part to making minestrone soup is that you can use a range of different vegetables...whatever vegetables you have on hand.  Adding the pasta makes Minestrone into a meal all on its own. To change it up, sometimes we use rice instead of the pasta ...delicious!

    Gluten Free Minestrone Soup
    First Tip - Sometimes we add gluten free pasta or rice, while it is bubbling away on the stove and then serve it in a large stone bowl, with crusty bread.
    Other times we serve it in a large soup mug that has cooked rice on the bottom and then we pour the soup on top. This way it is still gluten free but it is 'just a little different' to scoop down and find the rice that is soaked in the delicious soup....delicious!!
    Second Tip - Add in a few leaves from the celery stalks, while the soup is bubbling away. It really adds a extra flavour to the soup !
