Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Chop tomatoes, bell pepper & onion into bite sized pieces. Place on a rimmed baking sheet.
- Add garlic, olive oil, vinegar, and Italian seasoning.
- Roast 15 minutes. Stir and turn the oven on to broil for an additional 5-10 minutes or until tomatoes are lightly charred on some of the edges.
- Meanwhile, slice and fry sausage until browned in a large pot.
- Add the tomato mixture & parmesan rind to the pot along with the broth and tomato paste and simmer uncovered for 10 minutes.
- Add the mini pasta and simmer just until the pasta is cooked (*see note).
- Remove parmesan rind and discard. Stir in fresh herbs and serve.
Notes
- Parmesan rinds are the ends of the parmesan cheese and can usually be bought at the deli counter. I buy about 5 rinds for $2 or so and store them in the freezer. Perfect to add flavor to soups, sauces, and more.
- 28 oz of canned fire roasted tomatoes can be used in place of fresh tomatoes. If using canned tomatoes, cook the onion in a little bit of butter until tender.
- *Cooking time for the pasta will vary based on the shape. If you plan to keep leftovers, cook the pasta separately and add it to each bowl when serving. The pasta will soak up broth as the recipe sits.
- This is a thick soup, for a more 'brothy' soup, use 6 cups of broth instead of 4.
- If planning for leftovers, cook the pasta on the side and add it to each bowl. The pasta will soak up the broth if left in the fridge and become mushy.
