It has been a rather rainy week...and I have a head cold that will not go away. So today I am cooking up a nice healthy bowl of soup and baking a loaf of bread to go with it. I have seen many recipes for this soup online, but this one is a version that is all my own. Cook up a pot, invite friends over and pass the bread bowl!
2 cans Italian style stewed tomatoes
2 c. beef broth
1 small can tomato sauce
4 carrots, diced
2 c. diced celery
1 c. chopped onion
1 c. sliced green beans
1 t. each of basil, parsley and oregano
1 c. pasta: seashell, elbow macaroni, or ditalini
1 can red kidney beans, drained
1# ground beef
3/4 c. Italian style bread crumbs
1 egg
2 T. oil
Mix the ground beef, bread crumbs and eggs well. Form into meatballs and place on a greased cooky sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
While the meatballs are baking, heat the olive oil in a large soup pan. Add the onion, carrots and celery and saute for 5 minutes. Mix in the tomatoes, tomato sauce, kidney beans, green beans and beef broth. Bring to a boil. Add spices and pasta. Boil gently for 10 minutes. Stir in the cooked meatball and continue to simmer gently for another 10 minutes.
