RECIPE BY: DuChick

This is a great vegetarian meal in itself. Add a panini or grilled cheese to the side for those two-handed eaters in your house. Small shaped pasta such as orzo or ditalini work best, but you can experiment with others. I find the flavors meld overnight and even tastes better as left-overs.

    Am not particularly a fan of mixed frozen veggies, so steamed a variety to use here ~ peas, carrots, a little corn, green beans (no limas), a little cauliflower & zucchini ~ & used vegetable broth instead of the chicken kind! Seasoned with lemon pepper instead of the usual S&P, & the result was a VERY TASTY soup, worthy of any table! Thanks for sharing!
