- Variations: depending on your preferences, peas, potatoes, celery, or green beans can be added. Often I add a healthy handful of chopped parsley if I don't have spinach on hand. If you have fresh basil, this can be substituted for pesto. Other traditional italian greens like escarole or arugula can be added instead of spinach. It is also traditional to add a parmesan cheese rind to the pot early in the cooking process for flavor.
