Prep: 10 min, Cook: 20 min.

  • 1/3 cup onions, chopped
  • 1/3 cup green bell pepper, chopped
  • 3/4 tsp. garlic, minced
  • 1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper
  • 1-1/4 tsp. olive oil
  • 1 cup reduced-sodium beef broth
  • 1 cup water
  • 11 ounces canned kidney beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1-1/4 cups canned Italian style stewed tomatoes

    Sauté onion, pepper, garlic, and red pepper in oil in large saucepan until tender, 3-4 minutes. Stir in beef broth, water, beans, tomatoes, Italian vegetables, and basil; heat to boiling. Add pasta and simmer, uncovered, until vegetables and pasta are tender, about 10 minutes. Stir spinach into soup; simmer 1-2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
