One of my goals this year is to eat lighter (smaller portions, less meat, more vegetables, etc.). I have been making this Minestrone quite a bit lately and it is a no-fail dinner. Seriously, you can put just about anything in it and it is yummy. I have made it with peas, zucchini, cabbage, kidney beans, black beans, potatoes, carrots, celery. . . pretty much whatever I have on hand. My kids don't love it, but I serve it over macaroni noodles with these yummy rolls and they don't complain too much.
Here's to a healthier 2009!

ReplyDeletei can't seem to get on the eat right, workout hard wagon.
struggling SO bad.

Yum! We love soups too.
ReplyDeleteok, I am going to be all over that. It totally fits with what I am trying to accomplish.

ReplyDeleteMmm. My kids will eat homemade chicken noodle (but not from a can; I guess that's a good thing!) so I should branch out and make more soups. Thanks for the props; major spike in activity today for my normally very sleepy little recipe blog :)
ReplyDeleteMmm..looks good!
ReplyDeletethat looks really good. i made this really great chili last night but my kids saw it and started asking "how many bites they had to eat before they could get down." i wish they all liked what i liked./
ReplyDeleteThis sounds good- I will probably have to do the macaroni noodles for my kids too though- I think I have everything for this except the spinach and so I better get cooking! Thanks for sharing!
