This is a high protein version of minestrone soup which is ideal for those seeking to up the protein in their diet or are on Mounjaro, Wegovy injections and are looking for a high protein meal.

We used bratwurst sausages in this version, as we had some in the freezer, herby sausages go well with minestrone, or you can brown some minced chicken, turkey, beef or pork for protein.   The beans also give an added protein hit and we added some wakame seaweed for extra fibre and umami tastiness.

If you want to add some more protein, use some high protein pasta, we had some leftover spaghetti in the cupboard, so added this.

This high protein minestrone soup has beans, sausage, plum tomatoes, carrots, celery, onion, garlic, and Italian seasoning for lots of taste.
