This soup is really tasty! I added a little bit more pasta and a few more meatballs than the recipe called for and it turned out great!

I made this soup one evening in a large pot. We had several people over for dinner and there were NO leftovers!! Although I used Spaghetti Sauce instead of Pizza Sauce. Note: Cook noodles on the side, b/c they tend to swell!

Very good and easy. Doulbled and used egg noodle flakes - 1/2 cup, instead of medium noodles. Not enough for 2 people as a meal, will triple next time.

I made my own meatballs, but this soup was still very easy and tasty. Even my "picky" husband like it.
