Great party or gathering salad. Broccoli and Cauliflower as add in's are a must. Also squeeze out the excess liquid from the tomatoes to keep from diluting the dressing.

Excellent, one of our regular soups but we make 2 modifications. Instead of water we use broth of some kind, generally vegetable broth (canned or from veggie broth powder), but also excellent with chicken broth. Second modification, we love the drop noodles (dumplings) we double or triple them.

Excellent! Best minestrone soup we have ever had. We usually add two diced potatoes to the mix and a can of crushed tomatoes. Makes a terrific meal! It has become a staple in our winter recipe file.
