Directions
Roasted Minestrone Soup, Roasted vegetables make this one a hearty Italian favorite From a supermarket handout , This is probably my favorite Minestrone Soup recipe to date I loved what the roasted vegetables added to this dish I did have a faux pas while making it I did not have tomato paste Instead, I added 2 Tablespoons of sundried tomatoes finely chopped I also used fresh tomatoes, about 1 Tablespoon of Christopher Ranch chopped basil and added additional beans, pasta and broth Definitely a keeper!, I chose this for the ZWT basil or nutmeg challenge and very glad I did I have never made a soup before that roasted the vegetables beforehand, but this was superb used some yellow squash in addition to the zucchini and that added another color to the mix I did get a bit mixed up reading the directions and didn’t add the tomato paste/wine mixture (I subbed grape juice) until I added the vegetables to the broth, but that was my fault for multi tasking while cooking I will place this as a keeper for our family! Thanks!
