Bolognese Soup

August 26, 2018 By Mihaela K. Sebrek Leave a Comment

“Bolognese” soup or turkey (beef) tomato and pasta soup is comfort food at it best. It’s hearty and filling, but not too heavy – it’s just right.


Bolognese soup

Summer is coming to an end (at least with current temperatures outside), fall is near, so in colder weather, and there is nothing better than tasty, warm soup for lunch (dinner), although we do cook soup when outside temperatures are 35C, especially fresh tomato soup. My hubby wanted to eat something with the spoon, and I was tired of making the same old soups and chowders and needed to try something new, and this recipe was a full hit. Since then we make this soup on a weekly basis. Ingredients are almost identical to ingredients for bolognese sauce, and that’s why I called this soup Bolognese soup. Instead of ground beef I used ground turkey, it’s a bit lighter version and must admit I like it better this way.

It’s also a forgiving recipe, so don’t fret if you don’t measure some ingredient exactly. Be careful to not let the pasta overcook or it will get mushy – don’t forget that the pasta will continue to cook after you’ve removed it from the heat.
