Italian Peasant Soup

I found this recipe in an old edition of the MACSAC cookbook, From Asparagus to Zucchini. It's a great resource, listing probably every veggie you'll find in a (temperate climate) CSA box with tips for general handling and preparation as well as specific recipes for each.

I like stews, but I'm trying to like soups. They're trickier, though. Brothy soups are like salads to me, easy to do badly, but a really nice one can be, well, really nice. This one didn't quite live up to expectations. But it would make a nice base to riff off of if you're looking for a vegetarian way to fill that chicken soup niche.
