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.

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
