A loaf of crusty peasant bread is the only accompaniment needed for this classic soup.
Quick, easy, and delicious. I added only one of the two tbsp of hot pepper sauce called for and found that satisfactory (although I may try an additional teaspoon the next time I make it). I used 100% whole wheat pasta shells instead of the tubetti (that was the only small pasta on hand) and vegetarian no-chicken broth.

A good solid dish that can be prepared quickly for a week-night meal.
