I usually eyeball my broth as Cheese and Jr don't like soupy soups. Campanelle or farfalle pasta works well instead of breaking the lasagna noodles, really I think any noodle will work well. Serve it with garlic bread for dunking!

They don't like soupy soups? I'll take all their soupy soups!

PS - I make something like this without noodles or cheese, and not as Italian-y, but I'll try this version too. I just call mine burger soup ๐Ÿ˜

I KNOW!! I love a good soupy soup ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ. I think I may try it with lentil pasta for a carb reduction/protein boost. It's one of my favorite soups.

๐Ÿ˜‚ oh no you don't!!

Why not? It's open source now, you can't stop me

Damn you Yodl!!! Does it seem more palatable since you have a recipe? ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

I didn't even read it all, just saved it for later. I knew all along it would prob be delicious :)

Honestly it's way more ingredients than I was expecting!

๐Ÿ˜‚ I was giggling so much earlier the boy was asking what was so funny. I told him silly Nostr people.

It really is sooooo yummy. One of those meals that feels like home...although looking back, my mother was an awful cook (a conversation Noshole and I have had ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ).

That's funny. Mine was a solid cook, but it wasn't until I did some sleep overs at friends' houses that I realized just how rare that is.

I'm hoping Jr gets to experience that ๐Ÿ˜‚ I love cooking all the things.

I also think long term, later life health and strength is highly influenced by childhood diet. Seems obvious enough when you think about it, I guess. So, not only enjoyable when you eat but pays dividends the rest of your life
