Creamy Minestrone – A Twist on the Classic

Creamy Minestrone – A Twist on the Classic

This isn’t the minestrone I grew up with — but it’s the one I reach for now. Comforting, creamy, and still full of goodness.

Traditional minestrone is all about warmth and familiarity — seasonal vegetables, pasta or rice, and that deep tomato base. But here’s the twist: we skip the tomatoes, and bring in a softer richness with oat milk and a splash of cream. It’s lighter than it sounds. Still wholesome. Still nourishing. Just with a gentler finish.

The vegetables are the heart of this soup — carrots, courgettes. . .
