This stuff shells soup is a spin on the classic pasta dish. A rich fire-roasted tomato broth with pasta shells is served over cheesy ricotta. It’s comforting and cozy and comes together so quickly!
All the love for soup season!!
My stuffed shells soup is a spin on the classic pasta dish, and I must tell you that I love it so much more than the pasta. It has tiny shells in a tomato broth with lots of fresh spinach and cheese. It’s hearty and comforting while also being simple and quick to make. It tastes like another cozy and comforting dish that isn’t the shells… but instead is a hug in a bowl!
No one will pass that up, especially as these temperatures dip.
Add a big hunk of garlic bread or buttered sourdough. The meal is MADE!
This is the exact kind of meal that we all want to eat on our busy weeknights. It’s very satisfying and filling, extra comforting – and! I can bring it together in about 30 minutes. There isn’t a meal better than one just like that.
I’ve been making this stuffed shells soup for ages, basically since I first shared my homemade spaghettios recipe. The base is this wonderful silky tomato broth that’s filled with parmesan flavor. That’s the exact kind I like – one that is rice but doesn’t have huge chunks of tomatoes in it.
Instead, I prefer some diced fire roasted tomatoes for that incredible flavor – smoky and savory, but not salsa-y.
The absolute best best best part of this soup? The cheesy ricotta shells “filling.” We use it right in the center of the bowl, instead of filling a pasta shell with it. It’s similar to the ricotta mixture you can add into lasagna soup.
A plop of this in the bowl before adding the broth? Oh my heavens. It’s incredible. The cheese gets so melty and flavors the entire bowl. Then you get bites of it with each spoonful of soup! While it melts, mind you.
Let’s just say that the soup itself is an experience. One you definitely want to have. (more…)
