Excellent soup of healthy vegetables. Great to eat on a cold winter day.

This is a great base recipe for making Minestrone Soup - make it several times in the Winter. I have been asked several times for the recipe. I make alterations like adding a can of dark red kidney beans, using seasoned diced tomatoes, adding a can of Italian green beans and use vegetable Broth instead of water. Tastes like the Olive Garden soup!!
