AIP Minestrone Soup
AIP Minestrone Soup
| By : |
Minestrone is yet another classic soup turned AIP by our chef using our very own Nomato Sauce. We added a little bacon to add a full rounded flavor, but you don’t have to. You can add your favorite vegetables to the mix, make it your own. After cooking, the bright Nomato becomes a delicious rich color that mimics the color and savoriness that real tomato would add to the soup. I really liked the flavor of the added fresh spinach. Some Italian sausage would be perfect here!

In February of 2012, Rohde launched Paleo On The Go in response to a decline in his own health. He was diagnosed with Eosinophilic Esophagitis or EoE, a type of autoimmune disease. Rohde also experienced brain fog, stomach pain, chronic fatigue and other painful symptoms. Years of conventional and natural methods with very little results frustrated Rohde. After extensive research he discovered a way of eating and living made up of real food that focused on reducing inflammation and repairing the gut – the underlying cause of most autoimmune disease.
Rohde researched the Autoimmune Paleo Protocol (AIP) and its strict compliance to remove potentially inflammatory ingredients. Shortly after starting the diet, Rohde experienced his symptoms beginning to alleviate.
After the improvements he experienced, Rohde wanted to share his newfound freedom with others by launching Paleo On The Go (POTG). POTG is a meal delivery service adhering to the autoimmune protocol (AIP) and delivering directly to people across the United States.
Rohde realized that he could work with his team, including POTG’s incredibly talented chef; Chef Ann Lotterhos, to develop a Test Kitchen and accompanying blog, where they could not only develop future products, but they could also share free recipes and cool ideas. Currently, Paleo On The Go spends several hours per week developing all kinds of amazing recipes. Chef Ann loves the Instant Pot, and uses every opportunity to come up with great ideas for her new toy.

Okay, so at first bite, I was like, ewww, it’s so oily (the grease from the sauted bacon) and has no flavor. After a few more bites, the oiliness decreased if I kept stirring it and wasn’t bad at all. I realized the flavor is honestly in the veggies and not the broth. This is SO nutrious feeling and filling while also low to mild on flavor. It will be so good during the winter! Also, my modifications/grocery-store-didn’t-have-it-so-I-was-too-lazy-too-find-it might have something to do with the
Hi Elihope,
Oils rise to the top, and we recommend having an oil skimmer to skim any rendered oils / fats. These are very popular with soup makers.
