Description
A heartwarming classic dish packed with flavor and nostalgia, perfect for cold autumn days.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 cups beef broth
- 1 can (15 oz) Red Gold Tomatoes
- 2 cups macaroni
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Sauté the aromatics: In a large pot, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
- Brown the beef: Push the onions and garlic to the side of the pot, add the ground beef. Use a wooden spoon to break it up as it cooks. Sauté until it’s browned and no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes and broth: Once the beef is cooked, pour in the canned tomatoes, including their juices, and the beef broth. Stir to combine.
- Stir in the macaroni and paprika: Add the macaroni and paprika to the pot, stirring until fully combined. Bring the soup to a simmer.
- Season and simmer: Reduce heat to low and let the soup simmer for about 15-20 minutes, until the pasta is tender and the soup thickens.
- Serve and garnish: Ladle the soup into bowls and sprinkle with fresh parsley for added freshness.
Notes
For a vegetarian version, substitute ground beef with lentils or black beans. A splash of sour cream can enhance the soup’s flavor.
