Notes
- Pasta Timing: For leftovers, consider cooking the pasta separately and adding it just before reheating to prevent it from absorbing too much broth.
- Adjust the Thickness: Add more chicken broth if you like a thinner soup, or simmer longer for a thicker consistency.
- Customize Your Toppings: Ricotta, fresh basil, and garlic bread make great finishing touches, but feel free to get creative with Parmesan or even red pepper flakes for a little kick.
