Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 lb ButcherBox Ground Beef
- ½ cup minced onion
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic about 6 garlic cloves
- 28 oz crushed tomatoes low or no sodium
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes optional omit if you don’t like spice or add to taste at end
- 4 cups low sodium beef broth
- 2 cups water
- 2 cups reginetti pasta or broken lasagna noodles about 5 oz
- ¼ cup ricotta cheese optional for serving
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese optional for serving
Instructions
- In a large pot on the stove, heat olive oil for 3 minutes over medium high heat.
- Add the ground beef to the hot oil and cook the ground beef for 10 minutes until browned.
- Once the beef has browned, add onion and garlic to the pot. Sauté for an additional 2-3 minutes until onions and garlic are translucent.
- Add tomatoes, spices, broth and water to the pot. Stir together, cover the pot and turn the heat up to bring to a boil. Stir every few minutes to prevent it from sticking.
- Once boiling, add raw pasta. Stir together and reduce heat to medium. Cook the soup uncovered for half the amount of time the pasta box recommends, stirring occasionally. Important: you should slightly undercook the pasta. Once you remove the pot from the heat the pasta will continue to cook and absorb the broth.
- After the pasta has cooked for half the recommended cook time, remove the soup from the heat. Let the soup sit uncovered for 5 minutes, the pasta will continue to cook.
- Once pasta has cooked, discard bay leaf. Add soup to bowls and top with parmesan cheese and ricotta. Enjoy!
Notes
- Optional: You can cook your pasta separately to avoid overcooking when using the Instant Pot or crockpot methods
- Feel free to add more broth to your liking
