Notes

Serve this delicious soup hot in bowls with extra mozzarella cheese and fresh basil. It pairs wonderfully with crusty bread or a side salad. For a creamier texture, mix in a bit of cream or half-and-half. You can add vegetables like spinach or mushrooms for extra nutrients or include crushed red pepper flakes for a spicier kick.
