Prosciutto-Pasta Soup Recipe Created by Ruth Paget

This soup is like an unassembled wonton soup when you have no wonton wrappers.  Pasta takes the place of wonton wrappers in this recipe.

Serves 4

Ingredients:

-2 tablespoons olive oil

-1 large, peeled, and chopped onion

-1 teaspoon dry garlic

-1 head chopped cabbage (core by chopping off the four sides and then the top.  Throw away the core.)

-1 cup peeled and sliced carrots

-1/4 cup chopped prosciutto

-1 (32-ounce) container chicken broth

-32 ounces water

-1 cup rotini pasta

Steps:

1-Sauté onions, garlic, cabbage, and carrots in olive oil for 10 minutes in a soup pot.

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

3-Bring the soup to a boil and let boil for 45 minutes.

You can make this soup spicy with Thai Sriracha Sauce, which is made in California despite its name.
