Vegetable-only Minestrone
I heard that it's more authentic not to use bacon or other meat-based bullion cubes, so I made this soup without them.
You can simmer it some more so that the veggies will become soft and fall apart. I like to serve it with a dash of parmesan cheese. Recipe by Setsubunhijiki

Drain the white kidney beans in a colander. Run them quickly under water and add into the pot to cook for another 10 minutes. Taste, and season with salt and pepper.

Veggie-packed Minestrone Veggie-packed Minestrone
All of my cooking centers around how to get my vegetable hating son to eat his vegetables.He especially hates raw tomatoes which is why I used canned tomatoes as the tomato base. He'll eat it if I use that.It also tastes good with wiener sausages in place of bacon.You should really boil the macaroni separately before adding, but that's so troublesome so I always boil it in the soup with the vegetables.You can make this with a wide variety of vegetables.

If you like your minestrone more soupy than chunky, add more chicken broth. Keep in mind if you save the soup to eat later, the pasta will soak up the broth. I personally think it tastes better after letting it sit overnight!

The minestrone I had in Japan always had tomatoes and short pasta with no beans. I had this kind at a restaurant in LAX for the first time after a long flight. I was exhausted and it comforted me so much that I made this as my homage to the soup :)
