Meatball Soup

You can make this quick and easy soup in a half hour if you have all the ingredients on hand.  This is scrumptiously delicious!  On this beautiful, but very cold day, it tasted so good.  I can’t wait to have seconds.

• 1 (14.5-oz.) can petite diced tomatoes
• 1 (6-oz.) can tomato paste
• 1 to 1/2 cups chopped onion
• 4 (14.5-oz.) cans beef broth
• 2 cups water
• 1 (32-oz.) pkg. frozen meatballs (I used slightly more)
• 1 1/2 cups small pasta, uncooked  (I used ditalini)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Garnish:  grated Parmesan cheese

Mix together all ingredients except garnish in a large stock pot over medium heat.  Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low.  Cook, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes, or until pasta is tender and meatballs are warmed through.  Garnish servings with Parmesan cheese.

Makes 6 to 8 servings.
