Cooking Steps
-
Wash and dry produce.
-
Halve, peel, and dice onion into ½-inch pieces.
-
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add beef*, onion, oregano, Fry Seasoning, salt, and pepper; cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until onion is softened and beef is browned, 3-4 minutes. (The beef will finish cooking in the next step.)
-
Stir in crushed tomatoes, stock concentrates, cavatappi, 3½ cups water, ½ tsp sugar, and a big pinch of salt (6½ cups water and 1 tsp sugar for 4 servings).
-
Increase heat to high, then cover and bring soup to a boil.
-
Once soup is boiling, uncover and cook, stirring occasionally, until pasta is al dente and beef is cooked through, 9-11 minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.
-
While soup cooks, roughly chop parsley.
-
Divide soup between bowls. Garnish with parsley and serve. TIP: If you want to add a kick, stir in a pinch of chili flakes from your pantry!

Reviews from our home cooks
This is the easiest recipe so far, just throw it all in a large pot and boil it until the noodles are al dente. It has such a good flavor...I added extra onions and some onion powder...it was really tasty!
Against my better judgement, I cooked the noodles in the soup in accordance with the directions. This was fine if it is all consumed immediately. But for leftovers, the noodles absorbed all the liquid and became mushy. I learned a long time ago to cook them separately to avoid this. But the soup was very good!
This soup served four-six servings when we increased the hamburger meat from 10 oz. to 16 oz. Very delicious!
I was surprised at how delicious this was--it was hearty and filling, with wonderful flavors and made good leftovers, too!
Loved the ease of one-pot preparation. Tasty and hearty, too! Was great with the added-on garlic bread.
This recipe was amazing! I was basically drooling while cooking it from the smell alone. My family agrees that it is absolutely delicious! 10/10
It didn't have much flavor, and so I added quite a bit-anchovies chile powder, cumin, garlic salt, and fresh garlic. I also added some shredded cheese for serving. The other issue with this is that it's only a soup when you first eat it. The noodles absorbed all of the remaining broth and it was basically hamburger helper the next day.
Claim as a comfort favorite. Cooked noodles a little over al dente, perfect for this dish, for it reminded me of a goulash dish growing up. Least favorite is the green pepper. For I like yellow, orange or red peppers.
Awesome! I have been craving vegetable soup! My mother made the best. This recipe was really skimpy so I added whole kernel corn, kitchen cut green beans, potatoes, and peas. And I made corn muffins. Not quite my mother's, but real good!!!
It's really good. 4 stars if eaten right away. However, does not make for great leftovers. Noodles get too soggy.
