I love this soup. I like to have the vegetables cut medium it makes is hardier. But if you prefer smooth you can always chop smaller or puree. I also omit the bay leaf because I don't like bay leaf. I also use a ham hock from left over Easter or Christmas dinner.
We don't mean to be cheesy. Well, actually, we do. And eggy. And mushroomy. And spinachy. Put it together and you've got a whole lotta delicious. Dinnertime is gonna be good.
The smartest thing you can do with this low-cal, low-fat meal is eat it with the people you love. This better-for-you ziti is still filled with cheesy goodness.
