After reading the other review about the recipe being watery I added tomato paste. I thought the recipe was very flavorful. I used chicken broth in lieu of wine. I will definitely make this again. Read More

I didn t have time to use the slow cooker so I made this stovetop. Followed the recipe exactly except for cooking times. I used tiny shells for the pasta. I let the majority of liquid cook out of the tomato vegetable mix. It turned out great! Very flavorful & was very easy to make! Read More

Made this yesterday followed the recipe to the tee. I found it bland and watery. Needs more spices and a thicker base unless you like soup. I was very disappointed and will not make again. Read More
