portion input wanted.

Turns out Tamara and Nate will only have 2 kiddos this week so I guess I don't need to make 1.7 gallons.  It's been a long time since I've made a good minestrone and I'm looking forward to making another batch!  I might make a big pot and only add the pasta at serving time so it'll keep well in the freezer.  Canned minestrone is good, but my own version is so much better!

We had a cold tomato/veggie soup that the restaurant called gazpacho and it was incredible, have never had it before & the restaurant said it dates back to colonial America 

I want to try making it one of these days it was soooo good

Tomatoes (technically a fruit but don't put it in your fruit salad ) and vegetables always go together well in a soup!
