    I had to double the amount of broth in order to keep enough liquid for cooking the pasta. I used a teeny tiny ravioli shaped pasta. Very good...I left the cheese off...by my husband loved it. - 2/5/10

    I am a vegetarian, and it's things like this that make me know I don't miss meat. I loved it. I did use Whole Wheat Ravioli and added almost double the veggie stock. And, I was out of spinach and used peas. Awesome. - 1/31/08
