Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. In a large pot over medium heat, brown the ground beef or sausage until fully cooked and drain excess fat.
  2. Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
  3. Pour in the canned tomatoes and sprinkle in the Italian seasoning. Allow to simmer for 10 minutes.
  4. Stir in your chosen pasta, cover with broth or water, bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cooking until the pasta is tender.
  5. Gently stir in the ricotta cheese, then top with shredded mozzarella. Let melt into the soup.
  6. Ladle the soup into bowls, garnishing with extra cheese or fresh basil.
