Minestrone Recipe

Recipe By EatingWell

This version of the italian classic soup minestrone is packed with leeks, potatoes, beans, zucchini, spinach and orzo, making it perfect for a hearty lunch or supper on a cold winter's night. To make a vegetarian version use vegetable rather than chicken broth. Top each bowl with freshly grated parmigiano-reggiano for a zesty burst of flavor.
