- 6 cups chicken or beef broth

Instructions

- Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, broth, Italian seasoning, basil, salt, and pepper. Simmer 10 minutes.

Notes
For extra depth, add a splash of red wine while simmering the sauce.
To prevent mushy noodles, cook them slightly underdone; they will soften more in the hot soup.
Store without noodles if planning to freeze. Add freshly cooked pasta when reheating.
