A comfort classic made in a single pot.

When you think of a classic Italian soup, you probably think of minestrone, but there’s another one that’s just as deserving of the limelight – Italian Wedding Soup! With tender meatballs and chewy balls of Acini de Pepe pasta but also plenty of veggies, it’s the kind of soup that will fill you up without weighing you down and it manages to do it all with amazing flavor. And our version? It comes together in a single pot, so you’re left with delicious soup and only one dish to wash.
