What Makes This Dish So Tasty

This soup is packed with fresh vegetables and wholesome beans, making it both nutritious and satisfying. It’s a great way to enjoy a variety of flavors and textures while keeping things light and healthy. Plus, it’s easy to customize with whatever veggies you have on hand.

Tips For Perfect Results

- Use low-sodium broth to control the salt level.
- Sauté the vegetables first to bring out their natural sweetness.
- Add pasta or beans towards the end to prevent them from getting mushy.

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook it until it’s tender but still has a little bite, about 11 minutes. Once it’s done, drain and set aside.

Step 2

Heat some oil in a big saucepan over medium heat. Toss in the orange and red bell peppers, celery, carrots, and garlic. Cook everything together, stirring occasionally, until the veggies start to soften, which should take around 5 minutes.

Step 3

Pour in the tomato soup along with half a can of water. Add the potatoes, chicken broth, basil, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Give it a good stir to mix everything well. Bring the soup to a boil, then lower the heat and let it simmer gently for about an hour so all the flavors can meld together.

Step 4

When you’re ready to serve, ladle the soup over the cooked pasta and enjoy!

Serving Style Ideas

Serve this soup with a slice of crusty whole-grain bread or a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese. A side salad with a light vinaigrette pairs well and keeps the meal balanced and refreshing.

How To Preserve This Dish

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. The flavors often improve after a day. You can also freeze portions for up to 3 months—just thaw and reheat gently on the stove.
