Minestrone. In a stockpot, saute the onions, celery and parsley in oil until tender. Stir in the broth, tomatoes, tomato sauce, cabbage, carrots, basil, salt and pepper. I created this soup after becoming tired of the excess salt and lack of veggies in canned minestrone.
Minestrone means 'big soup' in Italian, and this soup is sure to satisfy even the biggest of appetites.
Served with a crisp loaf of bread, it's a meal in itself!
