INGREDIENTS NOTES:
GROUND BEEF:
- We can combine lean ground beef with delicious Italian sausage for a well-rounded taste. We can also use the turkey or chicken for a leaner alternative. Based on your taste, pick a mild or spicy sausage.
TOMATOES AND TOMATO PASTE:
- We add the diced tomatoes and the tomato paste; the diced tomatoes give the soup texture, and the tomato paste concentrates the soup’s flavor. The smoky flavor of the soup will be enhanced by using fire-roasted tomatoes.
RICOTTA AND MOZZARELLA CHEESE:
- We add the Ricotta and the mozzarella cheese; as ricotta gives a creamy touch, while mozzarella cheese gives the soup its gooey, melty flavor. We would also utilize the cottage cheese as a substitute of the ricotta or leave it out for a lighter version. Choose full-fat cheese for optimal flavor and texture.
HEAVY CREAM:
- Heavy Cream gives the soup more depth. We would also utilize the coconut cream or almond milk to make the non-dairy dish.
SEASONING:
- We can alter the quantity of oregano, crushed red pepper, and basil to your preference. The flavor profile can be further improved by adding garlic or fresh herbs.
