Super easy and fast supper and quite filling when served with some garlic bread. I added 2 tbsp of minced garlic and a good splash of red wine. It was delicious! Thanks!

Based on the user comments, I really expected to be impressed by this soup. But it tasted very much like Campbell's vegetable soup (admittedly with more vegetables) with tortellini. It was good, but nothing special.

Delicious soup. I used fresh carrots and sauted them with the celery and onions. This will be a go-to weeknight soup recipe for me ... so quick and delicious!

My husband, who is always complaining that things need "more flavor", said this was "the best soup he has ever put into his mouth." I will definitely be making this again!
