This is a very "chunky" but healthy minestrone that's easy to make. If you like you your minestrone a little soupier then I'd suggest using only 1 can of beans and reducing the broccolini and spinach a bit.
Saute leeks and celery in olive oil until soft about 6 mins.
Add chopped garlic, saute for 1 minute
Add wine and allow to cook out alcohol for about 2 mins.
Add broth, shredded carrots, tomatoes, and herbs and simmer for 15 mins.
Add chopped broccolini simmer for another 5 minutes
