Quick, easy, delicious and light. Lots of flavor without lots of simmering. Suggest doubling the recipe. Hearty enough to eat for dinner with crusty bread and a green salad. Thanks, Ridgely, for sharing! I am a big Cooking Light fan!

Just tried this for lunch. It's a hearty and delicious soup. Used pesto filled tortellini as my pasta and frozen spinach instead of fresh. Also added chopped garlic as suggested. Loved it!

Absolutely wonderful!! Quick and simple and sooo full of flavor. A great way to sneak in spinach! I used the tortellini pasta as suggested in the reviews. The only thing I'll do different next time is double it!!

This soup is really, really good. I used pork italian sausage but used 16 oz instead of the 8 oz called for. I like more meat in my soup. I followed all directions to a tee after that and it was excellent. I did'nt have the cheese or basil to garnish but it still looks and tastes good.
