For a more substantial meal, you can add a few pierogies or raviolis 10-15 minutes before serving by first bringing soup to a boil. Or this can be served over fresh noodles.
Season to taste, and remove from heat. Serve the vegetable recipe accompanied by toasted Italian bread spread with garlic butter and Parmesan cheese.
