  1. This is a great version of this soup that I have made many times. You can substitute spinach leaves (which I seem to have in the house more often than not) in place of the chard. I am thinking the *swiss cheese* mentioned in the ingredient list does not belong???
     
  2. Simple and incredibly delicious!
     
  3. Delicious AND healthy! I made this today for lunch and really enjoyed it. I used some chard that I got from the local farmers market with orzo for the pasta. I couldn't resist throwing in a teaspoon of oregano while it was cooking (I like oregano). Very yummy, thanks Anna.
     
  4. Made this for a luncheon today and it went over really well. Sauteed some carrots and celery with the onions and garlic, otherwise followed the recipe exactly. Excellent quick soup recipe. Thanks for posting, Anna!
