We thought this was a wonderful recipe and very close to the restaurant version that my wife loves. We are going to add a bit of hot italian sausage to the ground beef and think it will resemble the restaurant version even more. Keep up the good work.

I'm a 48 year old man who hasn't cooked much in the kitchen. Made this soup just as the recipe reads. Very easy and simple to make. It made a lot of soup. It was absolutely awesome! Gave about 75% of it to co-workers, all who said they loved it. I highly recommend this soup. Thank you CD Kitchen.

My girlfriend made this for us the other night and me and my boyfriend absolutely loved it. We asked her for the receipe and she gave us this link. Can't wait to make it outselves. Yummy!

This soup is awesome. I used Italian seasoned diced tomatoes and eliminated the oregano. I also added a little sugar, maybe 1 1/2 teaspoons. Yummmm!

Excellent recipe. I substituted low sodium chicken stock and ground turkey and it is delicious. I made half of the recipe and had plenty to freeze for later. Family loved it.

Made this soup last night, my son could not get enough- and he won't eat beans! He ate this soup right up, beans and all!!!! Great topped with Parmigiano Reggianno and toasted olive oil rosemary bread! Yum, yum, yum! Thank you for this recipe!

By far the best soup I have ever made..It does have a lot of ingredients, but you can make it simple by buying the onions celery ect already chopped, my family LOVES this recipe..and every time I see my 3 year old nephew he asks me to make soup!! So yummy and in my opinion better than Olive Garden!

This is the second time I have made the soup. I thought it would be too much soup but the way my kids and family ate it, I decided to make the full batch again. This is truly a great recipe. It is also great to share.

My husband and I are putting together a list of our favorite recipes that we would like at least every 6 weeks. This soup made the cut! I went by the recipe, but added a small can of tomato sauce and about 1/4 cup sugar ( I usually do when tomatoes are involved ). Thanks for the recipe!

This is very easy to make and perfect to feed a crowd--I halve the recipe and it still feeds over 10 people easily. I cook the pasta to al dente separately and then add to each bowl as I serve it. Otherwise it sits in the soup and overcooks. Enjoy!!

this is my favorite soup at OG.....this recipe is amazing!!! The only thing I did differently was to increase the oregano and increase the hot sauce....I am thrilled with the result, as is my husband. Thank you so much!! I will be including this for any family get-togethers!!!

I made this dish for my large family of 8 plus my daughter's boyfriend and they all raved about how good it was. I was told that we have a new favorite.I did it just like the recipe call for. I would reccommend this to anyone.

I have this simmering now and the taste test is superb! I added some V-8 juice, some crushed red pepper flakes, salt and 1 tsp of chili powder, plus the recipe as written. Kraft Tuscan House Italian dressing is very similar to OG dressing so it is soup, salad and bread stick night.
