Minestrone Soup

An easy to make, minestrone soup recipe that tastes 1000 times better then the store bought one! Packed full of fibre, micronutrients and protein makes it the perfect lunch or dinner winter meal. I made this in the slow cooker but you can also use a large soup pot as another option.
