     Roasted Vegetable Minestrone Soup in a ceramic bowl

    Roasted Vegetable Minestrone Soup is the perfect way to enjoy leftover roasted vegetables. Loaded with potatoes, zucchini, bell pepper, onion and tomato - such a satisfying soup recipe!

    Here is the final recipe of the three-part series with Oven Roasted Vegetables as the base - Roasted Vegetable Minestrone.

    I may be cheating by calling this soup 'minestrone' because, when I looked up the definition, here's what I found:

    min·e·stro·ne

    noun
    1. a thick soup containing vegetables and pasta.

    And, no, this soup doesn't have pasta, but it has potatoes. Does that count? And it's thick. So we'll call it minestrone, okay?

    You can use broth or water for the liquid in this soup - or even the juice from cooked beans if you've saved it.

      In Italy usually we prepare minestrone using only vegetables, when i was a kid i used to hate it: everytime my mom said "minestrone for lunch" we started to have strange headache or stomachache !!! but Now i cook it almost like you ( and more beans!) because it becomes more tasty!

        Giovanna! I trust you most of all to define Minestrone. Thank you so much.

      It gets the point across, so minestrone works for me Marissa. We food blogger tend to stretch the meaning of some words. This is just the right soup for the chilly days here!

      I'm sure you could still call it minestrone! It looks delicious and I like the use of potatoes for a gluten free version 🙂
