This one pot minestrone soup is such a great recipe. It is two of our favourite things – comforting and easy clean up! There’s nothing better than being able to throw together a cozy, delicious recipe without dirtying too many dishes. Minestrone was one of my favourite soups growing up. Reyhan told me she had never even had it before! I knew then it was time to veganize this classic dish. It’s filled with macaroni noodles, kidney beans, carrots, spinach and more veggies!

You can customize what veggies you’d like to put into it as well. If you have veggies to use up in the fridge you can pop them in! It doesn’t have to be exactly what we did! If you’re looking to warm up during these cold days, we highly recommend trying this one pot minestrone soup. The soups will keep on coming for us. Having a warm meal inside makes winter more bearable! We hope you enjoy it and share it with friends or family! Be sure to tag us on socials if you recreate it @plantbasedrelationship.

*Note: When you see us using vegan beef broth, it is typically always this one from President’s Choice!
