Thick Spaghetti Soup ๐ฒ
Description: This thick and hearty soup is a complete meal in a bowl, perfect for a cozy weeknight dinner. Pair it with some raw vegetables and dip, along with some crusty bread for a satisfying meal. It also freezes exceptionally well, making it a convenient option for meal prep. This recipe has been a staple in my kitchen for quite some time, possibly originating from the early days of the Taste of Home magazine.
