Instructions

  3. Add Ingredients: Stir in diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, tomato paste, broth, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and pasta.
  4. Simmer: Bring soup to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes until pasta is cooked.
  5. Adjust Consistency: Add water or broth as needed to reach desired soup consistency.
  6. Serve: Add suggested toppings to the whole soup or individual servings; garnish with fresh parsley.
  7. Storage: Refrigerate leftovers for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
  8. Reheating: Add more liquid when reheating to adjust for absorbed broth.

Notes

  • Choose sturdy pasta shapes to prevent mushiness in leftovers.
  • Feel free to substitute ground beef with turkey or sausage.
  • Use crushed tomatoes for a thicker broth.
  • If needed, marinara sauce and water can replace canned tomato products.
  • Add water or broth when reheating to maintain desired consistency.
