So let’s talk about Tuscan minestrone soup. I feel that when fall and winter come around, soups will make you feel warm and toasty inside. With the cold and wet weather we have been having, this soup clearly sounds pretty good now. Minestrone soup is loaded with colourful, healthy vegetables and has the most flavourful broth. Adding gluten-free pasta or quinoa turns this delicious soup into good old comfort food. This soup is one of those meals that will satisfy your craving for hearty food, plus it’s super simple to make. I love serving this Italian soup with gluten-free artisan crusty rolls or gluten-free pull-apart soft rolls with rosemary, they are perfect for dipping. This is one of those hot meals to just have on hand for when you crave something warm and satisfying or when you know there just isn’t enough time to make a healthy meal for your family.
