    Very good, although I'll use kitchen ready tomatoes rather than diced. Will certainly make it again! Yum!

    Very easy to throw together. Most minestrones have more veggies so I added some chopped zucchini. Also added a spoonful of beef demi-glace to give the broth more flavor. I'll cut back on the dice tomatoes though. Next time I'll try this with ground chicken and chicken broth for a healthier version.

    FABULOUS! My entire family loves this meal. I also throw in any fresh veggies I have that need to be used. Today, I added red bell pepper & yellow squash. Yummy!

    Absolutely love this soup. I've made it at least 5 times in the last 2 months. Its such a hit! I did add a squeeze or so of lemon juice and threw in some dried dill for flavor.

    i pair it with crusty garlic bread and you have a hot hearty dinner for cold fall/winter nights :

    A very delicious soup. This is my second time making this soup. I used 1 lb. of the ground beef, added 1 small potato, and in the last 15 min. added about 1/2 cup of uncooked orecchiette pasta. I love all of Giada's recepies. ;

    Great soup! I served it with crusty garlic bread. I put 1 lb. of ground beef & covered the pot for about 20 min because I didn't want it to reduce to a stew. I also used whole plum tomatoes & chopped them myself since I think they taste better. You could definitely add pasta or potato if you wish. Next time I may add zucchini to sneak in more green vegetables for my kids.

    I added some dried italian seasoning like some people had posted.
