If freezing the soup for future use, cook the pasta only halfway. This will prevent the pasta from getting soggy.

I made this soup for tonights dinner. It was wonderful. The only changes I made was, I used freash vegetabales instead of the frozen ones, and I did not use low soduim. Turned out great. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

Absolutley wonderful! Instead of beef broth, I used veggie broth that I had cooked fresh greens in and that took care of the spinach also! Very filling. I also used dry minestrone soup mix instead of the frozen.Very budget-wise and meatless meal!
