Feel free to customize this soup with your favorite vegetables! Other great additions include green beans, kale, potatoes, or corn. For a vegetarian version, omit the bacon and ground beef. Use vegetable broth instead of beef broth. If you don't have red wine on hand, you can substitute 1 tablespoon of red wine vinegar. This soup tastes even better the next day, as the flavors have more time to develop. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Serve hot, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese and a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.
