    I love this recipe & make it often. I add some boiled shredded chicken to bump up the protein and a little bit of dried oregano & basil for flavor. - 5/10/13

    Very Good
    I really enjoyed this soup. My sweetie added 5 Costco meatballs (250 cal) to it but I enjoyed it just as it is. Next time I might add zucchini and mushrooms just to mix it up a bit. - 4/23/10
