A wonderful soup not only for the fall....but any time! Serve with Italian bread and a glass of your favorite red wine!

Absolutely wonderful! My husband is not a huge vegetable fan, but he ate this great soup, even though it truns out chock full of veggies. My daughter (1 1/2) was crazy about it. I made it just as the instructions said, but if you want more of a soup texture, add some more liquid. I liked the way it turned out, thick and very hearty. Can't wait to make it again.

This was great! It also made a lot! I had an extra half pound of hamburger and thought I'd put it in and there were almost too many meatballs for the soup. I did not add pasta but did stir in some quick cooking barley. Will make again and will try to freeze.

Anyone who doesn't rave over this soup must have done something wrong. Our family doesn't usually love soup so I don't make it often but decided to give this a whirl after ordering something similar at a restaurant. I made a few changes. I added cubed red potatoes, diced tomatoes instead of stewed tomatoes, onions, baby bella mushrooms, two cloves of garlic, basil and a bay leaf. Topped each bowl with parmesean cheese. It was FANTASTIC!! You can really add just about anything you like to a recipe like this. I also used elbow macaroni because it was all I had on hand. The aroma was so wonderful. My husband wasn't excited when he saw that I was making soup for dinner but he quickly changed his mind after the first bite. He went back for thirds. Even my kids who are picky eaters asked for more. To date this is the absolute BEST recipe I've found on this site and I've tried many!! Thanks for sharing this. I'll make it over and over. Very easy to make too!!

This was a wonderful meal. Veggies, pasta, meat...all areas covered, pretty much. It was inhaled and thoroughly enjoyed!

This soup is just alright. I won't be making it again.

This was a good, hearty soup. The recipe made quite a lot. It just wasn't anything spectacular.

This was a really good and filling soup. I will make a couple of changes next time I make it. I will omit the tomatoes and the stock, and just add more water, since I used chicken soup pkt instead of onion there was plenty of flavour. I will also use less parmesan. Other than that the soup is really good as is, and even better the next day when the flavours have had time to blend.

This makes a pretty tasty soup, but I had to make some adjustments based on what I had on hand. Instead of dried onion soup mix, I used 1 cup each of chopped fresh onions and celery, slowly sauteed over low heat for 10 minutes in 1 T. oil and then added 4 beef bouillon cubes along with the water. I substituted beef broth for the chicken broth, a can of diced tomatoes for the stewed tomatoes, and then left out the canned green beans because I didn't have any. I also added a cup of chopped cabbage to add some more fiber to the soup. I reduced the bread crumbs and parmesan cheese in the meatballs to 1/2 cup each (otherwise the meatballs would be all filler) and added 1/2 tasp. of Italian seasoning. I thought it needed more seasoning when it was done, so I added some dried basil and oregano to it. I also added extra beef broth to balance out the extra veggies I put in. This is a good, hearty basic recipe that you can adjust depending on the veggies, broth and seasoning you have on hand.

I used frozen vegatables, pre-made frozen meatballs, no pasta and more spices than originally called for, but the soup tastes good. We will see what the family says in a little while.

This was the best soup Just like one of my friends us to make try it you'll like it pass it on

I tried this last night and I made a few changes: left out the pasta, used 24 oz of already cooked meatballs, added 2 stalks of celery (chopped), added 3 cups chopped potatoes, added 1 T dried parsley, 2 bay leaves and 1/2 tsp. of black pepper, added 1 can (8 oz) of tomato sauce, used a 20 oz pkg. of mixed vegetables and omitted the can of green beans, and also added 1 extra cup of water. I served this with "Quick and Easy Cheese Bread" from this site. Everyone (except me) enjoyed the soup. Don't know right now if I'll be making this dish again though.

Very very good, whole family enjoyed. I will add this to my recipe file. Thanks Judy!!

Just fantastic!

I loved this soup. I used frozen meatballs and left over green beans from a bbq instead of canned. The flavor is great! I will definitely make this one again.

Delish...need I say more?

This is one of my family's favo
