"This soup is full of healthy antioxidants. A very hearty soup for a cold winter night! I serve it with hot garlic bread. If you are lucky enough to have leftovers, it's great the next day!"

A good start. I'd recommend adding cannelini beans and pasta for the full experience. I also substituted some apple cider for some of the liquid - a nice touch in the fall.

I liked this because it tasted great, easy to make, and very versatile. I used peas instead of green beans b/c i didn't have any. I added whole petite baby carrots instead of cutting up a big one. Even my BF liked it, and he hates veggies!

THIS SOUP IS AWESOME!!!!! I'm always looking for new vegetarian meals and this is now a favorite! It's a bit time consuming with all the chopping, but totally worth it!!! I makes a lot (there are only 2 of us and no kids), so next time i'll try freezing some. I will definately make this again!

Mmmmmm... what a great soup, really healthy and tasty. I added a lentil mix (red & green lentils with some pearl barley) and it was so good. I didn't have any green beans so added extra celery and I didn't have italian seasoning either so i used oregano, corriander, cumin and a bit of chilli. I only had 1 sweet potato but really wished I had 2, I think it really makes this soup.. Can't wait for the leftovers tomorrow! : )

I really liked this recipe. It was easy to make and magnificent to eat. My husband also really enjoyed it. I made a lot and packed it for my lunch the next day, all of my co-workers were begging for the recipe.

This was a good soup, although I had a couple of unexpected variations that I used. My local store was out of vegetable broth so I bought the Lipton Vegetable Soup Mix (comes in the box like the Lipton Onion Soup Mix). I used 2 packages of the veggie soup mix and added 6 cups of water. And, I was in a hurry and picked up the Italian Style STEWED Tomatoes by mistake instead of the diced. The sweet potatoes took me forever to peel and cut - they are sooo hard and it doesn't help I'm a pokey chopper. Maybe next time I'll put them in the micro for a few minutes first to make my life easier. In the end the soup turned out plentiful and tasty with enough to share with my neighbors and freeze.

Great! Was a little sweet though. I added barley and after tasting the sweetness I added vinegar to my individual bowl. Next time I'll probably add vinegar to taste to the whole pot.
