Updated on Jul 11, 2013

Summer doesn't seem like soup weather but with the constant rain; soup sounded like a comfort food. Pulled out one of my favs. I used to take this to the office for gatherings. Just put all your ingredients in crockpot, plug in @ work and in 4 hours you will have co-workers waiting in line after smelling this all morning. This is a very fresh tasting and flavorful soup. Perfect for vegetarians. Recipe note: the shredded mozzarella on top of the hot soup... I can definitely recommend that! Serving suggestion: pair with hot, crusty Italian bread.
