Ingredients
Method
- Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium high heat. Crumble in the beef and sausage and cook, breaking it apart, for about 8 minutes until browned.
- Push the meat aside, add the onion and cook 4 minutes until soft. Stir in the garlic and cook 30 seconds.
- Add the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, beef broth, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from heat. Ladle the soup into bowls and top each with a dollop of ricotta and a handful of mozzarella. Garnish with fresh herbs and serve hot.
Notes
The soup will thicken as it sits, so add a splash of broth when reheating if it gets too tight. If you want a little vegetable bite without adding carbs, drop a handful of spinach into the pot right before you take it off the heat.
