Italian Wedding Soup has quite a history! The name comes from the Italian phrase “minestra maritata”, meaning “married soup.” It’s a marriage of ingredients—a combination of leftover meat, veggies, and pasta in a hearty broth.

Sauteed brussels sprouts with bacon will change the way you feel about eating brussels sprouts. They are crispy and flavorful. Perfect as a side dish or eaten alone.Taste great warm or cold and can be prepared ahead of time. Delicious and healthy.

This soup is perfect for all seasons. It is comforting but not too thick. It offers much lighter taste and texture than the typical broccoli cheese soup. It is not gooey and has much more balanced vegetable/cheese flavor. Family favorite.
