This is exactly how we love it, but you can always make it thinner by adding additional broth. Additional protein: The quinoa and beans add a lot of protein, but if you'd like more, stir in some shredded rotisserie chicken near the end of cooking to warm it through. Classic minestrone is made with pasta. But since we often bend the rules around here, rather than pasta I added in quinoa. While not quite as pronounced texturally wise as the pasta would be, the quinoa upped the protein content of the soup, keeping it hearty and filling without overloading your body with refined carbs.
