How To Make mighty good minestrone soup

Step 1

Bring 8 cups of water to a boil. Add diced potato and celery and cook until almost tender but still firm.

Step 2

Lower heat. Whisk in dry soup mix. Add remaining ingredients.
Step 3

Slow cook until pasta and veggies are tender. (Soup mix says 15 min. but I like to cook mine longer so flavors blend together.)
Step 4

Serve with good crusty bread. You can sprinkle top of soup with shredded parmesan cheese too.
