Notes
Nutrition facts do not include toppings.
Sugar: The sugar is to cut some of the acid from the tomatoes. It is highly recommended to keep a smooth flavor.
Make Ahead Directions: You can throw all of your ingredients into the slow cooker the night before, except pasta and spinach. Store in the refrigerator. Then cook according to the remaining instructions the next day. The soup can also cook a little longer, if necessary, just don't add your pasta for the last 3 minutes.
Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3-5 days. Reheat in a microwave safe bowl in the microwave or in a large pot on the stove. You may need to add a little extra broth or water if the noodles absorbed lots of the moisture.
Freezer Directions: To freeze before cooking, brown meat with onions and garlic, then add remaining ingredients except pasta and spinach. Transfer to a freezer bag or container. Freeze for up to 6 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight. Then follow remaining cooking instructions. To freeze after cooking, allow soup to cool completely. Transfer to a freezer bag or container. Freeze for up to 6 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight. Reheat on the stovetop over medium heat (returning to the slow cooker will make the noodles too mushy).
