DIRECTIONS

I used half beef and half chicken broth, canned diced tomatoes instead of fresh, dried pasta and I added some fresh baby spinach the last 5 minutes cooking. This was a great soup.....and it makes a ton. Hubby is looking forward to leftovers! Thanks Tim for the great recipe.

YUM-O! This was excellent! I used hot italian sausage and skipped the wine. I also added a package of frozen corn, red peppers and black beans (came mixed together). Also used 2 cans of diced tomatoes with green peppers and garlic instead of fresh tomatoes. Added some red pepper flakes and used boxed cheese and spinach tortellini. Oh, and I put in a whole package of fresh baby spinach around 5 minutes before it was done. This soup is great because you can add just about anything you like. It was so delicious and filling. This is a definite keeper in my house!

This is indeed really, really good! I am a stickler for following a recipe to the letter the first time (I do not understand how people can trash a recipe and then go on at length about what they did or didn't do - it just isn't fair!)and I wouldn't change a thing. Maybe add some fresh spinach or mushrooms? Thanks Tim for an excellent addition to my recipe box!

This is as good or better than any soups we've had in Italy. My Italian husband loved it, and with all of the vegetables it's truly a healthy meal, even with the sausage! Easy to modify (I added additional tortellini and vegetables to make it even heartier), and keeps well for additional meals. Thank you, Tim, for a great recipe!

I made this twice. The first time I used an iron skillet and hubby cooked sausage on grill. I sauted onions and garlic in pan. Then added red cooking wine and beef broth and let it boil for a while. Then, I added the sausage and let it cook a little longer. Then I put in crock pot and put in seasonings and tomato sauce. I left out the tomatoes. I let it cook for a couple hours more. Kids loved it. It got left out overnight and I had to throw it out. :( Second batch I used chicken broth and cooked the sausage in the skillet. I put it in the crock pot again with the sauted veggies and instead of tomato sauce I just added a whole jar of spaghetti sauce! I left it thin enough to be a soup and the seasoning were enough to keep it tasting great. The second batch was a little oilier because of the cooking the sausage inside in a skillet rather than the grill. I think the flavor of sausage was better the first time, but the spaghetti sauce worked great. Then second batch I

Great soup! Hubby ate 3 bowls of this last night with a hunk of quiche! I did modify a little though. I used 1lb. of hot turkey sausage browned and crumbled out of the casings, let that sautee with the onion and 3 minced garlic cloves. I used 6c. fat free/low sodium chix broth instead of the beef, added the red wine(which I loved the flavor of), 1 can(approx. 14oz) fire roasted tomatoes in the juice, 1/2 pk. of defrosted spinach, 1 can of drained and rinsed canelli beans, omitted the tomato sauce and green pepper. Used ditalini pasta instead of the tortellini and cooked that by itself and spooned some pasta in the bottom of the bowls, and added the hot soup on top. Very flavorful. Family really enjoyed this one. Thanks!

This was great! I used a lowfat chicken italian sausage and substituted mushrooms for the zucchini (boyfriend doesn't like it), but otherwise I followed the recipe exactly. A great, hearty meal on a cold, rainy night. The best was that I threw it together in less than 45 minutes.

Out of the last 3 "5 star" rated soup recipes that I have tried the past 3 nights, this is the only one that deserves 5 stars, according to my family of 7.

This recipe was a tremendous hit. Great flavor and combination of vegetable. I will cook this ahead without the tortellini and freeze. After thawing, I will add tortellini and simmer a few minutes until pasta is done.

I've made this recipe twice; but the 2nd time around I used about 3 1/2 Cups broth, and during the last 10 minutes of simmer, I added 1/2 Cup heavy whipping cream, and it was really, really good. Great recipe!
