Recipe summary

Easy as ABC! This soup will warm up the kids up after school or anytime you need to serve a quick lunch. If you want a thicker soup, add tomato paste.

Yield: 4

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups chicken broth or good quality canned broth (625 ml)
3/4 cup dried Alphabet pasta or other short-type pasta (175 ml)
1x14 ounce can pureed plum tomatoes or 1 ½ cups tomato sauce
1 tablespoon tomato paste, for a thicker soup (15 ml)
1 teaspoon dried Greek oregano, optional (5 ml)
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste (60 ml)
Coarse salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste

Directions

Over high heat, bring chicken stock in a saucepan to a boil. Add pasta and cook until a little tender but still firm, about 5 minutes. Add tomato puree, tomato paste and oregano, if using. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in parmesan cheese. Season soup with salt and pepper to taste. Serve.
