This is one of my favorites from my sweet mom. If you're down or not feeling well this soup WILL cure what ails you.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

Mom knew how to make soup! This recipe is warm, delicious and full of flavor. I love the tip on having the pasta on the side so it doesn't get soggy. The seasoning amount in the dish is just perfect - the tomato base, Italian seasoning and the pepper flakes for a kick.
