Yeah. That’s a handful of major goodness.

Best of all, you can use store-bought, frozen or homemade meatballs. From there, this soup can be whipped up in a flash!

After this, you’ll never look at spaghetti and meatballs the same way. Although this soup does come neck in neck with these baked spaghetti and meatballs…

style=”text-align: center;”>Why It’s A Smart Choice

Spaghetti and meatballs can end up being quite a heavy meal. But by making it into a soup, you retain all the flavor but in a lightened-up version! To reduce the sodium, look for a low sodium broth and marinara sauce.
