Country-Style Soup

A soup full of flavor, perfect on its own or served with toasted bread, and it also goes well with pasta. This dish reminds me of a friend, a mother, a grandmother who lived on a farm near Bari (Acquaviva delle Fonti). My children called her Nonna Maria. One evening, she made this dish with vegetables she picked from her garden. Words can't describe how delicious it was. Today, I remember her by making this soup and saying thank you, endlessly, in her honor.
