The recipe was very tasty. I used no-salt chicken stock and the salt in the can of corn was enough for my husband and me. The pasta was a bit soggy perhaps it was because I used whole grain. I used garbanzo beans instead of white beans which worked out well. Next time I think I will use garbanzo beans again and then use another kind of bean instead of pasta. Read More

This was excellent! I made as directed except that I switched out a carrot for another can of beans due to personal preference. The one thing I will mention is that the zucchini turns to mush and disappears leaving only the skin visually. Not a big deal but seeing how zucchini is bland to me I'll just leave it out altogether next time. Great soup and super easy! 5 stars all the way! Read More
