Everyone’s favorite dish is turned into the creamiest, coziest soup ever! Made in just 20 min. Kid and adult-friendly!
Spaghetti and meatballs. In soup form.
Does it get any better?
I mean, seriously.
Imagine having a hot bowl of creamy tomato soup.
With meatballs.
And spaghetti noodles.
Topped with fresh basil and Parmesan cheese.
No wait. Extra Parmesan cheese.
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.
