Easy Pasta Soup

This post may contain affiliate links. Read our disclosure policy.

I have another recipe for you today that fits my goal for this year to “simplify” when possible. This easy pasta soup comes together quickly thanks to canned products. I even paired it with some freezer biscuits.

I like to cook the pasta in a separate pot while I am browning the sausage.  This helps get the soup ready sooner by multi- tasking. I have included instructions in the notes to cook the pasta in the soup if you would rather have a one pot meal. If you chose to go that route, it will take an additional 15 minutes to cook.

For this, you begin by browning the sausage with onion and pepper in a stock pot. Then drain off any excess grease you may have. Next you add in some beef broth, water, petite diced tomato, frozen corn, marinara sauce, garlic, thyme, and parsley. Then allow to simmer for 15 minutes. Then mix in the cooked pasta. I recommend serving it with some shredded cheese on top.

I have several more soup recipes coming up for you over the next few weeks.  I have really been loving the simplicity of a bowl of soup for dinner.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ cup uncooked pasta I used mini bowtie
  • 1 lb. mild italian sausage
  • ½ cup onion diced
  • 1 green bell pepper diced
  • 3 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 14.5 oz can petite diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup frozen corn
  • 1 24 oz marinara sauce (I used Kirkland brand)
  • 1 clove of garlic crushed
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • Optional topping: shredded mozzarella cheese or parmesan cheese

Instructions
 

  • In a large sauce pan, bring to boil water to cook pasta. Add pasta and cook according to package. Once cooked, rinse and set aside.
  • In the meantime, in a large stock pot, brown sausage with onion and pepper until sausage is fully cooked. Drain off any grease.
  • Add remaining ingredients to the pot along with the sausage mixture. Let simmer for 15 minutes and add cooked pasta.
  • Serve soup topped with shredded mozzarella or parmesan cheese. Serves 6 -8.

Notes

If you prefer to cook the pasta in the soup you can. You will need to increase the water by at least 1 cup and let the soup simmer for 30 minutes instead of the 15 in order to fully cook the pasta. I prefer to cook it in a separate pot in order to get dinner done sooner.
