I adore this soup! However, I was trying to duplicate an Italian Wedding Soup served at a local restaurant. Their soup did not contain tomatoes so I left those out and it was exact. Yummy Italian wedding soup and so easy. I realize you could use meatballs in this but the sausage is so much easier.

I didn't have sausage, so I substituted canned chicken...it was just as tasty. Small shells or any small pasta works in this.

This soup is delicious! I used Italian style turkey sausage, and it was really good. I also omitted the spinach, because I didn't have any. I think it would be even better with the spinach! I used ring shaped pasta instead of orzo as well. This was really good; even my little brothers and sisters who dislike soup really enjoyed this! Thanks for sharing; I will make this again!

Great flavor! We served this at our church soup supper and got great reviews. Would recommend Barilla orzo. We used a rounder shaped orzo and many wondered what kind of "seed" was in the soup?

My family loved it. I make it every 2 weeks, it's that good. My 11 year old says Yeah! when he sees what I'm making for dinner. He comes home from school begging for the left overs. My horribly picky eater will eat it with out complaint. I used hot italian sausage. and fresh spinach. loved it so much, I always make it like that. I gave this recipe to my sisters for christmas. Thanks for this recipe. Some recipes are the best gifts!

OK, I wasn't crazy about this soup. I used low sodium chicken broth and ended up adding 2 bouillon cubes and black pepper to add flavor. That didn't do it for me. The orzo absorbed most of the stock - I should have precooked it as suggested, but we do like a thicker soup. It just didn't seem to have any flavor. Maybe hot sausage or red pepper...I do like Italian wedding soup, so this was a disappointment for me. My husband ate a bowl out of obligation and my son at least tried it. Use a big pot if you do try it!

I made this when I was feeling very bad; so I had to use ingredients I had on hand. I used Rotel green chilies and tomatoes and tomato sauce, mushrooms, chicken bouillion instead of chicken stock. I feel strengthened now; the taste is sensational and it was really nutritious. I highly recommend it!

Very healthy and filling, great for left overs. My husband loves spicy foods though so I added some hot sauce. One of those soups that becomes a family staple and made again and again over the years.

Excellent! My husband went back for seconds. I added more garlic than called for and sauteed the onion, garlic, and pepper a little, then cooked up the sausage, and then added the tomatoes, broth, etc. I also used a pound of fresh baby spinach that I chopped up instead of the frozen. Yum!

This is my new favorite soup! I left out the green pepper (personal taste) and used italian cheese & parsley sausage from the Italian market. Top with some good parmesan or romano...manja!
