Ingredients
Soup Ingredients
- 1 lb hot sausage (Italian sausage may be used as well)
- 1 lb ground beef
- 2 small onions, chopped into 1/2″ pieces, about 2 cups worth
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp Italian seasoning
- 1/2 – 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
- 6 oz tomato paste
- (2) 14.5 oz cans diced tomatoes, with garlic (fire-roasted tomatoes are great, if you can find them)
- 8 cups chicken broth
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 6-8 oz mafalda pasta, or an alternate curly pasta
Cheese Topping Ingredients
- 8 oz ricotta cheese, about 1 cup
- 2 oz Parmesan cheese, about 1/2 cup
- 2 oz freshly shredded Mozzarella, about 1/2 cup
Instructions
-
In a large soup pot or Dutch oven, cook and crumble the sausage and ground beef over medium-high heat. Add the onions and the garlic to cook along with the meat. Sprinkle with Italian seasonings and red pepper flakes as everything cooks.
-
Add the tomato paste, diced tomatoes, chicken broth, salt, and pepper. Stir and increase heat to high. When soup begins to simmer, reduce to medium-high once again and add the pasta. Stir and simmer until noodles are soft, 8-10 minutes. Taste the broth and adjust spices as needed.
-
Remove from the heat when the noodles are tender, but still chewy. While the pasta is cooking, stir together the ricotta, Parmesan, and Mozzarella in a small bowl.
-
Scoop the soup into bowls and top with a generous scoop of the cheese mixture. Enjoy!
