1/3 cup Parmesan cheesegrated + more to serve (optional)
Instructions
Prep veggies by preparing them as listed above.
Heat oil in a large soup pot or dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, onion, and carrot. Cook until the beef has browned, stirring often and break up any large pieces of ground beef as it cooks.
Add the dried herbs, zucchini, tomato sauce, beef broth, salt and pepper to the pot.
Bring the soup to a boil and then add the pasta noodles. Lower the temperature to medium heat and let the soup simmer until the pasta is cooked through.
In a small bowl, mix the ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese. Once the soup is ready, ladle it into bowls and top the soup with a heaping spoonful of the cheese mixture. You may also sprinkle with additional Parmesan cheese or mozzarella for an extra cheesy soup (optional).
Notes
If you are serving this to non-picky eaters who don't mind larger chunks of veggies, feel free to chop the zucchini and carrots instead!
