This is a delicious soup everyone loves. Like to serve it with crispy Ciabatta bread for dunking. Just took a picture of it to post here. I saw the lady make the soup when she was a guest on the Hour Magazine tv show that Gary Collins hosted. I mailed away for the recipe card, and still have it. She used zucchini for the squash. I substitute a 14 oz. can of fire roasted tomatoes for the fresh tomatoes. RZZ

WOWWWWW...INSTANT COMFORT FOOD!!! This is amazing! Love the garlic, the wine and the romano cheese. I followed MaryMeow's suggestions -- I can't even imagine how it could taste any better! Served it with my quick garlic bread. A WINNER of a recipe! Thank you, MaryMeow! UPDATE: I've made this twice -- once with white beans, once with garbanzo beans. Both great! I added artichoke hearts I needed to use the last time -- delicious and hearty as the first!

I am trying to expand my cooking skills beyond the basics. My mother is Japanese, so we did not get many traditional American dishes when I was growing up. I really like Recipezaar, because I have found that the best recipes are the tried and true, made by home cooks like myself. I think this is better than any cookbook-there is so much variety. And the majority of the recipes I have tried have turned out pretty good!
