I always try a recipe exactly as written then make changes (if needed) the second time I make it. It really bothers me when people make changes and then criticize!Anyway...I won't change a single thing! This is soooo good!

-
Dana Smoak says:
This is such a delicious soup! I made it for supper tonight--easy and tasty.
-
Mindy W says:
Sooo yummy! Perfect, (and quick!) comfort food for cooler weather. I used ditalini pasta instead of elbows, and I added about 1 cup more because I wanted it to be more like a pasta dish instead of soup-like. It turned out great and plenty of leftovers! Will definitely add this to my rotation this winter.
-
Sara says:
This was a big hit with my family. I added 1 packet Ranch Dressing Mix in place of the salt and it was delicious.
-
WestCoastItalians says:
I made this for family dinner with my inlaws, everyone loved it, even the little ones! Will be adding this into our rotation!

This was easy...I found I didn’t have any oregano...I used Italian seasoning...still was great...thanks
-
Danielle says:
Is this freezable?
-
Momma Cyd says:
It should freeze pretty well in a freezer container or freezer bag.
-
cheryl in CA says:
this soup has a lot of flavor. adding the spaghetti for sauce gave it a nice, fresh tomato flavor. i didn’t have cream cheese. i used Mascarpone. it was delicious. i will surely make this again. thank you.
-
Mary Krause says:
Is the macaroni supposed to be cooked?? Cuz it seems like it should be uncooked
-
Momma Cyd says:
Add the pasta in uncooked. After you add in the pasta is says to cook for 10 minutes in the directions. That's when it will cook.
-
Shelby Gunhus says:
This was delicious I will add ranch like another review suggested the next time! I love your recipes just wish you had nutrition information for the recipes.
-
Momma Cyd says:
The nutrition information is right under the recipe instructions.
-
Sandy says:
Do you drain the ground beef after it cooks?
-
Momma Cyd says:
Yes, you'll want to drain the grease.
-
Tara Miller says:
This soup is delicious. The first time I made it I added carrots with the onions and beef and used leftover tomato soup instead of sauce but cut out some water. The second time I didn’t have cream cheese and used marscapone instead. Both times it tasted great. It’s a great recipe to use up leftover pasta, sauce and tomato soup.
-
Momma Cyd says:
We love hearing the substitutions you used when you have been short on ingredients!
-
Donna G says:
I made this soup for dinner tonight. What an incredible taste! So delicious! I will definitely be making this again! Yum!
-
Lori Chase says:
Made mine with ground turkey, delicious!!
-
Christina says:
This was delicious!! I usually make things with ground Turkey and I did that tonight. I had some other pasta like rotini. My husband and 3 kids all loved it too! Thanks for an easy weeknight meal!
-
Sharon Davis says:
Absolutely delicious! Will definitely make again.
-
Kass says:
Made this recipe last night and it was sooooooo good and very easy to make! I even snuck in some chopped baby spinach and nobody noticed. We all liked this soup a lot! Thanks for sharing. :)
-
Emily Naftzger says:
We made this for the first time this week, and everyone loved it. It was super quick and easy for a we, great for a busy week night, and my picky eaters didn't even complain about the tomatoes. Thanks for a simple but fantastic dinner!
-
Melissa says:

Kristal H says:
My entire family loved this one!
-
Lori says:
What is the serving size?
-
Michelle says:
Excellent recipe!!! Definitely recommend!!
-
SG says:
Delicious! I altered a few things: deer meat, splash of white wine vinegar with the onions and deer. Added some cayenne and crushed red pepper flakes. Used a can of stewed tomatoes, can of fire roasted diced tomatoes, small can tomato sauce, 2Big spoonfuls of tomato paste. Eye balled most of the spices. Super yummy! And made a ton!
-
Beth says:
This recipe is soooo good! The broth is creamy…and the noodles…yummy! Followed recipe exactly with the exception of adding a little more salt for our taste. The only thing to chop is the onion, ground the beef and then dump everything else in as recipe denotes. Always excited when I find a keeper :)
-
Elle says:
Really love this one. I add some cut spinach to it that my whole family eats and doesn't realize is there!
-
Deb says:
Love! Love! Love this recipe so much! I made it twice this week already I love how easy it is to make. A one pot meal! I do sprinkle it with Parmesan cheese when I add it to my bowl! So Yummy
-
Sarah says:
Recipe looks delicious but I’m looking for clarification on the “spaghetti sauce” ingredient. Is that supposed to be jarred pasta sauce or a can of plain tomato sauce? Thanks!
-
Momma Cyd says:
You will want to use the jar pasta sauce (spaghetti sauce) for the most flavor.
-
Aaron Jabs says:
Great recipe!! Keeper for sure
-
Bri says:
Delicious! I made it exactly as the directions said. For the spaghetti sauce I used a half jar of Prego Traditional (reduced sodium) and a half jar of Prego Italian Sausage & Garlic and the flavor is perfection! Will definitely be making this again. And soon!
-
Jeri says:
Made this last night with ground turkey and we finished the whole pot! My family loved it. Thank you for the recipe.
-
Momma Cyd says:
So glad to hear that the family liked it! It is great with ground turkey too!
-
jan says:
will this freeze or keep in refrigerator
-
Momma Cyd says:
Leftovers will keep great in the fridge for another night.
-
Angie says:
Serving size? :-)
-
Momma Cyd says:
It's a little over a cup. A good hearty soup.
-
Kaitlin says:
I can't wait to try! What is considered a serving size? Roughly one cup?
-
Aubrey says:
Cooking from the pantry tonight and this recipe fit the bill it hurthe bill it's perfect and warm and yummy for a cold rainy night we are going through tropical storm right now and remember right now and this was perfect thank you for the recipe
-
Aubrey says:
Cooking from the pantry tonight and this recipe fit the bill it's perfect and warm and yummy for a cold rainy night we are going through tropical storm right now and this was perfect added 1/2 of milk to make it a bit creamier and used ground sausage instead of ground beef. It was delicious thank you for the recipe
-
Michelle says:
I doubled the meat (2 very athletic kiddos in the house) and used reduced fat cream cheese and gluten free pasta. This was a fantabulous soup. No I didn't make it exactly as written, but the changes didn't make a difference to the flavors. Both kids told me this is a make again. So it was a big hit!
-
Michelle M. says:
Can I cook this in an instant pot?
-
Vic says:
Excellent! I will make this again, exactly as directed.
-
Momma Cyd says:
You could convert this into Instant Pot cooking, but it only takes 30 minutes from start to finish as it is. It's a pretty quick recipe.
-
Momma Cyd says:
We are so glad to hear that your family loved the soup. It's fun to add your own twist to recipes and make them to suit your families tastes.
-
Chuck says:
A great recipe, so tasty. Thank you for posting
-
Dana S says:
This soup was so easy to make and very filling. Perfect on a cold day. I will definitely make this again.
-
Melanie says:
My family loves the recipe
-
Momma Cyd says:
Thanks Melanie! It's one of our favorites too!
-
Dianna says:
What brand of spaghetti sauce do you use?
-
Momma Cyd says:
Any spaghetti sauce will do. We have used Raos, and all the way down to store brands. They all taste great.
-
Michelle says:
Delicious! I added some fire roasted peppers and used fire roasted diced tomatoes. Next time I think I will cook the pasta on the side rather than directly in the soup as it did get a little too soft. Thank you for the recipe! Will definitely add to my soup rotation.
-
Trisha Halverson says:
I made this for a potluck Christmas lunch party, and it was the only soup to get devoured completely! I will definitely be making again. It was hearty and delicious! Great recipe!
-
Jenn says:
Would sour cream work in place of cream cheese?
-
Momma Cyd says:
You can substitute sour cream for cream cheese in recipes. The taste will be different since they don't taste the same. But the soup will still be delicious.
-
Lisa in Toronto says:
Really really like this recipe. My family all agreed that it was delicious. Simple ingredients and comes together pretty quickly as a one-pot meal. Some modifications based on what I had available:- I used homemade beef-tomato stock instead of chicken stock- I used herbed cream cheese instead of plain- I threw in 2 full cups of noodles and would consider 2 1/2 cups next time- I did not add the can of tomatoes (because my stock was already tomato-flavoured)Will happily make this again!
-
Momma Cyd says:
Thanks for sharing the modifications you made. It's always great to know in case viewers don't have every ingredient.
