Minestrone is a traditional, brothy Italian soup made with vegetables, beans, and pasta. Traditionally it doesn’t include meat, but we’ve added a few crumbled meatloaves for extra flavor and protein in this surprisingly hearty soup. If you don’t have ditalini pasta, you can substitute another small pasta shape, such as orzo or elbow macaroni.
