Minestrone is an Italian soup made with vegetables, beans, and pasta. Typically, it doesn’t include meat, but we added crumbled meatloaves to make this soup even heartier. If you don’t have ditalini, feel free to use elbow macaroni instead.

Stir in the broth, tomatoes, beans, salt, and Italian seasoning and bring to a boil, occasionally stirring and scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
