I found this recipe in a Pillbury Bake-Off Cookbook about 10 years ago. It's delicious, fairly quick to make, is low-cal and party perfect. Ingredients:
10 ounces angel hair pasta, broken in half (capellini) |
2 (14 ounce) cans beef broth (ready to serve) |
1 (16 ounce) package san francisco style frozen mixed vegetables, broccoli carrots water chestnuts and red peppers (i use green giant american mixtures) |
1 cup frozen cut green beans (green giant - from 16oz. bag) |
1 cup chopped summer squash |
2 teaspoons dried basil leaves (or 2 t chopped fresh basil) |
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes |
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt |
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can whole tomatoes, undrained,pureed |
2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional) |
Directions:
1. Combine, in a large sauce pan, the beef broth, all the frozen and fresh vegetables, and spices through the garlic salt. 2. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer covered for about 7-8 minutes. 3. Add the pureed tomatoes and cook till heated through. 4. Cook the pasta while the soup is heating, according to the package directions. 5. Place pasta in 6 soup bowls, dividing evenly, and ladle the soup mixture over it. 6. Sprinkle the cheese and parsley on top of the soup. |
