Martha Stewart Member Rating: 5.0 stars 01/14/2020 This recipe was great! It definitely needs the pesto on top though, because it was a bit bland otherwise, so don't skimp out Martha Stewart Member Rating: 4 stars 03/18/2013 Loved this soup! I substituted 1 tsp dried oregano for the fresh sprigs. I also omitted the bread. We topped off the soup with pesto and Parmesan. I served toasted, crusty bread on the side. It was delicious! Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 11/07/2012 I agree with dragonsdrama.....where's the video, so far 2 recipes missing them, hope its just temporary and we get them back soon!! Thank you so much for those entertaining videos!! Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 11/06/2012 Have you decided not to do the video's anymore? I really enjoyed them, and several of my friends signed up to receive them too. This is the 2nd recipe posted with no video. Please bring them back! Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 11/02/2012 This is a delicious stew and even better the next day. I followed another reviewer's advice and added a Parmesan cheese rind and used rosemary because I have lots of it. Martha Stewart Member Rating: Unrated 10/18/2012 Quick. Easy. Delicious. I'm making it again this weekend for another get-together, since it was loved by everyone at two prior gatherings (even a bean-hater!). A definite keeper, and clearly a new go-to recipe for me this fall-winter. Delicious as followed, but I'll probably also try rosemary instead of oregano, and I have to remember to throw in my Parm cheese rinds! Enjoy!Martha Stewart Member
