{soups-salads-and-salad-dressings} Pasta Meatball Soup Recipe

 

Pasta Meatball Soup Recipe



When time is tight, Beverly Menser whips up Pasta Meatball Soup in her Madisonville, Kentucky home. The savory Italian soup relies on items most cooks have in the kitchen, including pasta, prepared spaghetti sauce, canned and frozen vegetables and frozen meatballs. The chunky mixture only needs to simmer for minutes before it can be ladled into bowls.

This recipe is:

Quick





    * 10 Servings
    * Prep/Total Time: 25 min.


Ingredients

    * 1 cup uncooked spiral or shell pasta
    * 1 package (12 ounces) frozen fully cooked Italian meatballs, thawed
    * 2 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) chicken broth
    * 1 can (28 ounces) Hunt's® Original Diced Tomatoes, undrained
    * 1-1/2 cups frozen sliced carrots, thawed
    * 1 can (16 ounces) kidney beans, rinsed and drained
    * 1 jar (14 ounces) meatless spaghetti sauce
    * 1 jar (4-1/2 ounces) sliced mushrooms, drained
    * 1 cup frozen peas
