A very good minestrone soup that was enjoyed by everyone. Didnt add the bacon, used vegetable broth, petite diced tomatoes and kidney beans. Had the basil pesto and parmesan cheese as options for toppers with freshly baked italian bread for soup dippers. Will make this again! Made and reviewed for the FYC tag game.

Been super cold perfect time to have a pot of soup simmering with the aroma of a good old fashioned soup filling the kitchen. Just enough different from our favorite to be added to my soup cookbook. I used 3 slices of bacon, the chicken broth option and did add extra carrots which I love. Made for a great lunch and freezer stash. I enjoyed it for lunch again today and can assure it is freezer friendly.
