Tomato Florentine is one of my favorite soups. Thank you so much Marbalet! I used acini di pepe and bouillon cubes, but other than that followed to a letter... It's perfect.

I made this exactly as the recipe directs. It was so good and very easy. If you don't like a lot of spinach, you may not want to add all of the spinach, as the recipe yields a generous amount. I will for sure make this again!

Great Soup, Easy to make. I added four (4) Italian Sausage Links; chopped up for extra flavor. Would highly recommend. I par-boiled the sausage-then quick browned and then chopped into small pieces.

Very good soup! Doubled the amount of pasta. I tasted the soup before I added the condensed soup and without it, I would have given this recipe a full 5 stars.

This soup went from good to great when I added a half cup of cream just before I took it off the stove. Double this recipe to make a fantastic next day snack. You also can't go wrong with some shredded Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese on top and a slice or two of French bread for dipping. Even those who don't like tomato soup will love this classic.

Little bit of personal preference tweaking and this would be a great recipe. I don't care for frozen spinach and I always seem to have fresh on hand, so I just added fresh spinach when I added the macaroni. It could use some additonal spices to kick it up a notch.

I thought this was just OK. Kind of blah. Needs more seasoning. Also, fresh spinach would be much better!

I didn't have the can tomato-veg juice, so I used a can of diced tomatoes and onions with a bit of water. Also, I used 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes as a previous post suggested. I didn't cook the pasta before adding it and used more than it called for so it was more like stoup! But it was awesome and will continue to make it in that manner. Very thick and satisfying!

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this soup! On top of that, it's so healthy...you can't lose. Perfect paired with a green salad. **The first time I made it, I thought it was a little bland. From then on, I added 1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper, and it helps SO much! I use acini de pepe pasta, and it works so well. We will make this for years to come!!

I tried this soup on a whim and boy am I glad I did. This was delicious. I dont even care much for spinach or canned tomato soup so I was skeptical. I doubled the recipe and decided to add a 6 oz can of tomato paste to it to thicken it up some. Delicious Thanks Holly!!!

This soup was o.k. I didn't have nutmeg, so maybe that was why the flavor was lacking. I thought there was WAY too much spinach and I love spinach! Also, I added about 2 cups of cooked Campanelle pasta and you could still barely tell there was pasta in it. I think this recipe needs some tweeking...thanks anyway.

I made this for a lenten soup supper at church, and it was well received. Quadrupling the recipe works just fine. Thanks for a great recipe!

I was pleasantly surprised by this recipe. It was beautiful to look at and taste great. I goofed and put 16 oz of spinach instead of 10, so to balance it out, I added a can of crushed tomoates. As another posted suggested, I substituded ditalini for the macaroni, I also swirled in a tablespoon of butter at the end, for mouth feel, and sprinkled grated parmesan over each serving. This was great, I will make again. Thanks Holly!

I love trying new recipes and this by far was one of the best soups I ever made!!!! I love a good tomato soup and doubled the recipe the first time I made it. I was able to freeze some of the soup and enjoy the rest. It is so flavorful and satisfying! Thank you Holly for sharing a most delicious recipe!

This was so easy to make, and so delicious! Instead of adding cooked pasta to the soup, I added a cup of uncooked ditalini about 10 or 15 minutes before serving. My husband loved it!
