I love Minestrone Soup, but sometimes, it isn’t hearty enough to feed my hungry fam at dinnertime. No worries! I made this super easy Minestrone Skillet that has all the flavors of the soup but in pasta form. My kids really love this one! I love how simple it is and how there are few dishes to clean up when we’re done!
Happy dinnertime! xx
