GREAT RECIPE! I have made this a couple times now and love it. I followed suggestions from other reviews and made the following changes: used hot italian sausage, 3 cloves of garlic, added 1 can of chicken broth, 1 small onion diced, 2 celery stalks diced, 1 can white kidney beans (drained and pureed), 1/2 cup uncooked orzo pasta and 1 tea crushed red pepper. Brown sausage, celery, garlic and onion in dutch oven. Add broth, tomatoes, carrots, crushed red pepper and pepper and simmer 1 hour uncovered. Add pureed kidney beans and cook another half-hour. Add zucchini and can of great northern beans and cook 15 minutes. Add orzo and cook 5 min. Add spinach and cook another 5 min. Add extra water if too thick. Serve with shredded romano cheese on top. The most important change is the addition of the orzo pasta. It really made the soup delicious and filling. Thanks for such a great recipe!
