Green Vegetable Minestrone

Extremely bland Bland despite adding extra garlic and garlic salt and using vegetable broth after reading reviews Pros: healthy, easy Cons: bland

A great canvas for improvisation I just love the idea of green minestrone and I'm kinda jealous I never thought of it before! I skipped the greens to insure that our kid would eat some too. So, you might say I made white minestrone. I chose to replace the zucchini because I think it gets too mushy in soups, and I replaced the frozen peas because my family are not that found of them. I instead used half a medium celeriac, my kid's favorite veggie, and a small leftover piece of rutabaga. I grated the potato for a thicker soup. I used half vegetable stock/water, and doubled the liquid ratio to fit my family's preferences. I used white kidney beans because that's what I had in the pantry. Great color. Great taste! A definite keeper. Pros: Low fat, easy, quick, chock-full of vegetable, no tomatoes Cons: A bit thin with water
