From USA Weekend 2/26/12 by Ellie Krieger "This Italian-style recipe is packed with six vegetables varieties -- plus beans -- making it an excellent source of fiber, vitamins A and C, and a good source of protein and minerals -- all for less than 150 calories a serving. mashing some of the beans before putting them in the soup thickens the herb-infused broth, giving it a hearty body."

[email protected]This soup is just okay. It's not bad, but it's not great either. The broth is a little bland and the vegetables are a bit mushy. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
