Corinne's minestrone. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the garlic, thyme, bay leaf and salt. I would say this recipe is a combination of my mother's minestrone recipe, the internet's soup, and our soup - rolling all those ideas into one perfect pot.
Minestrone soup is a classic recipe we absolutely love.

If you have a food processor, it makes very light work of chopping the vegetables. But use the pulse button so you don't chop them too small. For a change, you can replace the macaroni with Italian risotto rice. Either way, serve it with lots of freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Most of my greatest memories have food wrapped up in them.
