This is our take on Minestrone Soup

and there are 1000’s of variations our there. Change it up to suit yourself.

Everything about winter to me SCREAMS – SOUP!! And this winter is no different.

Tomato Soup – OMG the one on Cookidoo is amazing – Move over Mr. Heinz – Cookidoo

Scotch Broth – YUM – Cookidoo

and of course everyones favourite – Hug In A Mug Chicken Soup – Cookidoo – the only thing I don’t like about this is the smell of it cooking. I don’t know but…. No! Taste is incredible – as long as I don’t have to smell it – hahaha

This is our Minestrone – Enjoy. Serves with freshly baked bread and oh I am in Heaven! Thanks Chris – he is the bread king in our home.

What's Needed

1 Thermomix

There are so many variations of this soup out in the wide world. Everyone has their own version.

This is a combination of mine, my sisters and of course, my Mums. If you leave out the bacon which I often do, the points reduce to 3 WW Points
