I really liked this - even though I'm not usually a fan of soup. Used a touch of fresh lemon juice as suggested in another review. Based on ingredients I had on hand used: fresh spinach and penne pasta. Penne worked fine but had to boil soup a bit longer. Loved the flavour that the cayenne pepper brings to the dish.

Very tasty. I skipped the pasta. It really didn't need it.

My family loved this soup! Instead of using frozen spinach, I sauteed fresh baby spinach in olive oil and garlic. Delicious!

this was ok, not too much flavor but very easy to make. Great for a quick hot meal, especially if you have a cold.

My family loved this! I used the chicken from a leftover roaster. And instead of frozen spinach, I sauteed a bag of fresh spinach in olive oil with chopped garlic, salt and pepper. Left out the cayenne because I didn't have any. Perfect for a cold night!

I love stracciatella. I make it very similiar to this recipe, but usually without chicken, and add additional spinach. Sometimes I will add rice rather than pasta, depending on my mood. I have never added cayenne to this soup, but was pleasantly surprised by its addition. Thank you!

I was amazed at how much my husband and I enjoyed this soup. I used less chicken then the recipe called for, and broken dried homemade pasta. I also didn't use any water, but half chicken half vegetable stock. We'll definitely be having this soup again.

Delicious! I was looking for a recipe using spinach, pasta, & egg, and this was perfect! I added a large finely diced tomato and used fresh baby spinach finely sliced and a bit of olive oil with the butter-it was a hit. My three young boys loved it-simple, good, and very filling.
