Me and my hunny thought this was delicious! I added 2 cans of spicy red pepper diced tomatoes (Aylmers) and 1 cup of chopped peppers and 1 cup of V8 instead instead of water and didnt add any extra beef, it was fabulous! and easy

This is a great family soup! I used 28oz Italian seasoned diced tomatoes (what I had on hand) and at the end of the cooking I added 1 bag of baby spinach just until wilted because I try to get as many veggies in my children as possible, then sprinkled parmesan. Even my picky 4-year old cleaned his bowl.

This is a good and comforting soup. My family and I loved this. I used crushed tomatoes because that's all I had and it turned out really well. I also used cheese ravioli because my grocery store didn't have the beef. I am going to try it next time with the beef raviolis if I can find them. I also sprinkled some parmesan cheese over each bowl when served. I just served this with some crusty Italian bread. My one son had two bowls!
