1 (16 ounce) can kidney beans, rinsed and drained

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your soup. Look for good-quality ground beef, Italian sausage, and fresh vegetables.
  • Don't overcook the meatballs: Overcooked meatballs will be tough and dry. Cook them just until they are cooked through, about 10-12 minutes.
  • Season the soup well: Use a variety of herbs and spices to flavor the soup. Italian seasoning, garlic, onion, and basil are all good choices.
  • Let the soup simmer: Simmering the soup for at least 30 minutes will help to develop the flavors. The longer you simmer it, the better it will taste.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: Pasta and meatball soup is delicious served with grated Parmesan cheese, crusty bread, or a green salad.
