Pesto Pasta Soup Recipe Created by Ruth Paget

Pesto Pasta Soup Recipe Created by Ruth Paget

This super easy soup depends on having a jar of pesto sauce in the refrigerator.  It is based on an Italian soup, but is a distant relative.

You want the pasta in this soup to be mushy not al dente.

Serves 4

Ingredients:

-1 tablespoon olive oil
-1 large, peeled, and chopped onion
-1 teaspoon dry garlic
-1 (32-ounce) container chicken broth
-32 ounces water

1-Sauté onions and garlic in olive oil for 5 minutes in a soup pot.

2-Add chicken broth, water, celery, and pasta to the soup pot.

3-Bring soup to a boil and let it boil for 30 minutes.
