Minestrone Soup is one of my favorites because it always reminds me of home and my mom's homemade bread. Almost every time my mom made this soup, she also made bread. Nothing is better than homemade soup and fresh bread. Okay, actually, nothing is better than fresh, warm bread. Ahh, I miss those days . . . but, at least I can still enjoy the soup. My mom's recipe requires multiple hours - cooking and adding ingredients at various stages; I found that the recipe turns out just as yummy when done in the crock pot, which makes it super convenient. I love crock pot recipes. Hope you enjoy this one.
