Mediterranean Beef Minestrone Soup by Salad Foodie

This feeds a crowd and then some. Hearty and healthy. Start this slow simmering soup early afternoon to have it ready for dinner, so there's time to develop the flavors.

This makes a double batch of the best, authentic Bologna-style meat sauce you've ever had. Do a batch in the fall with some fusilli, or make it special with some homemade pasta. You won't be disappointed. Freeze what's left, it reheats even better.
