This version of Italian minestrone soup is made entirely from ingredients found in your pantry or kitchen cabinet. It includes canned vegetables, pasta, dried herbs, canned beans, chicken broth, and tomato paste. Traditional minestrone is simmered with a Parmesan rind, which imparts a pleasant umami flavor. In this quick version, the Parmesan rind is replaced with a teaspoon of soy sauce, which adds a deeper, richer flavor. Serve hot, drizzling each serving with extra-virgin olive oil.
