While the veggies are sautéing, grill the hot pepper on the griddle until a some charring has occurred. Then chop the pepper with the seeds for extra heat (if you like) and toss into the saucepan.

- Add the chicken broth and the beans to the veggies and continue to simmer on low for another 25-30 minutes.
- Break the spaghetti in half and prepare as directed on the box.
- Place some spaghetti in a bowl and top with the soup. Drizzle a teaspoon of Balsamic Vinegar on top of the soup for a really nice flavor addition. You also can top with some grated Romano cheese and a little extra drizzle of olive oil.
