I love minestrone and this one was so good! Cooked this in my crock pot on low and the flavor was wonderful. Did brown the stew meat and used beef broth instead of the water. I dont care for frozen green beans so I added canned and used baby carrots. Cooked the elbow macaroni and the stove and added to the crock pot right before serving. Sprinkled with the parmesan cheese and enjoyed! Thank you silly sally!
