Beefy Tomato Macaroni Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Saute ground beef, onions and celery.
• Add salt, pepper and tomatoes, tomato soup, beef broth, macaroni and worcestershire sauce.
• Bring to a boil then simmer for 18 minutes.
• Divide into containers and freeze if so desired.

Steps:

• In a large pot heat the olive oil over medium heat.
• Add the onion and garlic to the pot and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring, until the onion softens.
• Add the ground beef to the onions, breaking up with a spoon and cook until no longer pink.
• Next add the salt, pepper, oregano and the one shake of cayenne pepper to the beef and stir to combine.
• Now pour in the chicken stock, pasta sauce and Rotel. Stir and bring to a simmer for 10 minutes.
• Whisk in the cream cheese until smooth then add 1/2 of the fresh basil.
• Pour in the pasta, stir and let cook for 10 minutes, covered, stirring halfway through cooking.
• Spoon into bowls and garnish with the leftover basil.
• *Note: The cream cheese will look lumpy when it first goes in -- WITH A WIRE WHISK, keep whisking it and it will blend until you see no white cream cheese left.
