Easy Tomato and Stars Soup
Toasted small pasta simmers in a tomato-enriched chicken broth and finishes with a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt for a creamy, risotto-like soup ready in about 20 minutes.
Sopa de fideo is the ultimate comfort food. Toasted pasta, when sizzled in a simple tomato-enriched chicken broth, becomes something greater than the sum of its parts. The pasta thickens the broth, and when topped with a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt, it takes on the luxurious feel of a creamy risotto. This recipe uses small soup pasta instead of the classic thin fideo noodles -- use a shape that makes you smile. It cooks in about 20 minutes and is perfect for packing warm in a thermos on a cold winter day.
