Kitchen 7- Minestrone Leftover Soup
For a good balance, try using at least three types of vegetables, one bean, and one starch. Or leave the starch out and make this a low carb and gluten free treat.Use vegetables in season, or bits of leftover veggies that you keep in a bag in the freezer. If the veggies are cooked already, throw them in the soup just long enough to heat them up, or they’ll turn into mush.Minestrone is typically made with beef stock but improvise with what you have. Using homemade broth will make a HUGE difference in the final product.If you add pasta or rice, make sure it’s cooked first and add it to the serving bowls individually so it doesn’t get mushy in the soup for leftovers. If freezing, it’s ok to add it to the portion right before you freeze it.
