Cooler temperatures instantly make me want to make soup for every meal. An added bonus with this recipe is that it’s straightforward to freeze. However, if you decide to go this route be sure to forgo adding the noodles. They don’t freeze well.
This soup is sure to become an instant classic in your fall and winter meal rotation. Full of nutrients and color it’s a crowd pleaser at any table.
Whip up a batch of this delicious minestrone soup for your next family meal. Your family (kids included) are sure to eat it up. Hooray for soup weather!
