I love it. I found the recipe in a cookbook originally, but it was so bland that I just kept adding more and more spices and vegetables until I manipulated the recipe to my liking. I keep lots of spices in my house, so a while ago, I spent a bit of time making a spice blend so I don't have to prepare one every time I make the soup: I just measure out 1 Tbs of the spice blend (my spices are old, so they're lost a lot of their flavor: otherwise I'd stick with 2 tsp) and add it to the pot. Sometimes, the vegetables can take a lot longer to cook, so I suggest steaming the potatoes, zucchini, carrots and the string beans (the latter for a bit less time) before adding them. The pasta can also absorb a lot of the water, so I would add it about 5 minutes before you finish cooking the soup.
