"This is a recipe that has been tested and loved by everyone I have given it to. Totally packed full of flavour, it is a low carb version of a minestrone, with potentially more flavour than any original version." - Megan
Recipe Tester Feedback: "This soup was so delicious. It had a real smokey flavour thanks to the added chorizo sausage, paprika and bacon. Perfect with some garlic bread and topped with Parmesan cheese." - Nadia
