One of the reasons for changing the recipe ingredients is that it called for 3 cups of oats, we only had two cups in house, and so we added the extra coconut to replace the lost bulk of the oats, and then decided to add a few other ingredients also. As they say, necessity is the mother of invention.

This recipe is adapted from the original in that I have increased the amounts of all the ingredients for a larger yield, but also the percentage of onions, carrots, garlic, and chicken stock, bringing the final product to a moister consistency.

While the original recipe called for adding the pepper with all the ingredients, I opted to leave it out until the end of cooking. In addition, you will notice that there is no salt in this recipe. The ham adds enough salt so there is no need to add any additional amount to the recipe.

Minestrone Soup

While the recipe calls for some frozen vegetables, they really are not that bad at all, in fact, it makes the soup go together quite quickly. Yet, if you prefer fresh vegetables, you could add sliced fresh zucchini, yellow squash, cauliflower, broccoli, Italian green beans, red peppers, carrots, baby lima beans in any combination that yields a pound.
