I was disappointed in this recipe the first time I prepared it. Last night I made it for the second time, and it turned out wonderfully! I added some salt to the recipe, extra mushrooms, some diced canned tomatoes, and a TON of chopped spinach -- I served it to friends, who immediately asked for the recipe, including my variations to it!

I did as the previous reviewer suggested and added the following: Lots of extra virgin olive oil, about 1 pound of mushrooms, lots of garlic, 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning, salt, 2 8 oz. cans of tomato sauce and 1 can diced tomatoes with onion & garlic. Add spinach second to last and beans very last. This made a large amount and was even very good warmed up the second time around!

This recipe is excellent if you use 3 cups of water with 3 (Maggi)vegetable bouillon cubes instead of plain water as the recipe calls for. I also added 1 pkg of frozen spinach & about 6 to 7 cloves of garlic instead of just 1. I also used 1 1/2 cans of tomato sauce. These changes give it wonderful flavor.

Four Stars but you have to modify the hearty basic recipe if you want robust flavor, too. I read a few reviews and made my version (this rendition, at least) by adding diced tomatoes, shredded red cabbage, pre-cooked pasta (left over linguini cut to 1 to 2 inch lengths), chopped hot peppers and replaced vegetable broth for water. Next time, I am going to use frozen cut okra and rice. After that maybe I'll add canned black beans (drained and rinsed) and extra cayenne for a south-of-the-border version.

I found the original recipe lacking. I followed some of the review suggestions...added veggie stock, corn, spinach and salt. Yummy. I also added the picture!
