Minestrone
Nothing beats a bowl of Mama’s homemade minestrone—pure comfort in every spoonful! Made with love and the freshest vegetables, this hearty Italian soup is slow-simmered to bring out deep, rich flavors. A touch of red wine, a medley of tender veggies, and creamy beans come together in a nourishing broth, creating the perfect balance of warmth and tradition. Topped with a sprinkle of Parmigiano and a drizzle of olive oil, it’s a timeless family favorite that fills the kitchen with the aroma of home. 🍲❤️
