Ingredients

Units Scale

Soup

  • 1–2 tablespoons Olive Oil, or preferred oil
  • 1 pound Ground Beef
  • 1 large Onion, diced
  • 4 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 (15-ounce can) Diced Tomatoes, don’t drain
  • 1 (15-ounce can) Tomato Sauce, or tomato puree
  • 1/3 cup Tomato Paste, about half of a 6-ounce can
  • 4 cups Chicken Broth
  • 1–2 cups Water, to adjust consistency
  • 1 tablespoon Italian Seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon Salt, or more as needed to adjust flavor
  • Black Pepper, to taste
  • 8 ounces Bowtie Pasta (uncooked), or similar sturdy pasta * see footnote

Suggested Toppings

  • 1/2 cup Ricotta Cheese
  • 2 ounces Mozzarella Cheese, shredded (about 1/2 cup)
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese, shaved, shredded, or fresh grated
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Heat a 4.5-quart soup pot: Heat a 4.5-quart soup pot over medium-high heat. Add OLIVE OIL and heat until shimmering.
  2. Cook beef, onion, and garlic: Add GROUND BEEF, ONIONS, and GARLIC. Sauté until the beef is cooked through, stirring as needed. Drain excess fat, if needed.
  3. Add liquids and seasoning: Stir in TOMATOES (with their juice), TOMATO SAUCE, TOMATO PASTE, BROTH, ITALIAN SEASONING, SALT, PEPPER, and PASTA NOODLES.
  4. Bring to boil: Increase the heat to HIGH and bring the soup to a boil.
  5. Simmer soup: Reduce heat to a medium simmer and cook soup for 10 to 15 minutes until the pasta is cooked to your liking, stirring frequently to prevent the pasta from sticking together.
  6. Adjust consistency: At this point you can add WATER or more broth in small amounts to adjust the soup consistency to your liking.
  7. Serve with toppings: Serving options: 1) Add the RICOTTA, MOZZARELLA, and PARMESAN to the whole soup after it cools slightly; or 2) Serve the cheeses on the side and add it to individual servings. Garnish with FRESH PARSLEY.
  8. Storage: To store: Cool completely and refrigerate in an airtight container up to 5 days or up to 90 days in the freezer (or more if vacuum sealed).
  9. Reheat: To reheat: Add more water or broth as desired because the noodles will have absorbed much of the broth.
